- If he will comment on the future of Ulster Savings.
- Answer
-
Sir David Mitchell: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement on the future of Ulster Savings. [21393] Sir John Wheeler: All new investments in Ulster Savings ceased with effect from 1 June 1991, although arrangements for reinvestment were retained. Having given careful consideration to the findings of a further policy review, I have decided that the facility to reinvest in Ulster Savings should be withdrawn. However, It has been agreed that the proceeds of matured Ulster savings certificates may be reinvested instead in National Savings with effect from 1 April 1997.
