I thank the Minister for that response, but given that the Government's proposals are a carbon copy of what my right hon. Friend the former Prime Minister announced, why did the Secretary of State delay the announcement by six months, causing unnecessary suffering and misunderstanding for the people who had lost money in the PMS?

There is a fundamental difference between what the previous Government did and what the current Government have done about the problems connected with the PMS: we have actually done something. We have responded to the request from the Executive in full. We stand by the Prime Minister's commitment, and we are very pleased that we were able to act so swiftly—unlike some others.

Last week, I joined a parliamentary delegation to China, where I was able to pick up a copy of Chairman Mao's ““Little Red Book””. Is the Prime Minister interested to learn that Chairman Mao said:"““Thrift should be the guiding principle in our government expenditure.””?" If Mao Tse-tung supports coalition policy, does that not mean that the Labour party is in a minority of one?

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his question. Having already announced one of the Chancellor's nuggets from his speech, it would be testing our friendship if I announced another. I gave my word about finding a settlement for the PMS. I know how important this is in Northern Ireland. I know that people lost money and that there was frustration that Ministers would stand at the Dispatch Box and say that no one had lost money during the financial crash—they did in the PMS. I hope that the hon. Gentleman will be satisfied by what the Chancellor has to say in a moment.

We learned a few weeks ago that even Cuba is making reductions in public spending, so I think this puts the modern Labour party somewhere between China and Cuba—but I am not quite sure where.

Now that the final day of the Chancellor's judgment has arrived, can the Prime Minister assure me by confirming that the decision taken on the 50,000 savers of the Presbyterian Mutual Society will be both fair and equitable? Will he assure us that no sleight of hand will be used in delivering the full financial package promised by the previous Administration to the Northern Ireland Executive?
