FitzPatrick, who represents Dundee West, and [URL=http://www.gamepolitics.com/2010/01/20/dundee-pol-sticks-game-biz]has been vocal in his support[/URL] of the games business in the past, sent letters to three new members of the Liberal Democrat & Conservative Cabinet—George Osborne, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Vince Cable, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, and Jeremy Hunt, Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport—asking them to work in conjunction with games industry group TIGA to enable tax breaks for UK developers.

The MSP noted that “any tax relief granted would be extremely small in comparison to the return on the investment, and would be a big step in the recovery of our economy.”
