Proceeding contribution from Lord Hodgson of Astley Abbotts (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].

Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

I accept the point that the Minister made. This is something that the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales is anxious about. I shall contact them and read the Minister’s comments, and we shall see if we want to return to the matter. It may be that in the mean time the Minister will be able to come up with some brilliant scheme that will address the issue that is of concern to the institute—namely, that of auditor identity theft, which has considerable impact with regard to the standing of companies seeking to use an audit firm to boost its position. On Question, amendment agreed to. [Amendment No. A191 not moved.]
