Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 7 July 2005. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Financial Assistance Scheme Regulations 2005.


Financial Assistance Scheme Regulations 2005

The Minister is new to this. We all made it clear in Committee that we thought that there was not the slightest prospect of industry giving a penny and that it would be inappropriate to expect pension funds in particular to do so. Can we lay this one to rest and stop wasting time on it? There is no prospect of it. I challenge the Minister to say whether any firm commitment of help of any sort has been made. Can we not clear this one out of the way and move on?
