Proceeding contribution from Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Investment Exchanges and Clearing Houses Bill.


Investment Exchanges and Clearing Houses Bill

Certain aspects of the legislation have been found to be excessive, and I understand that at the behest of the United States Treasury Secretary they are now being reviewed—and they might well have been removed by the time that this legislation receives Royal Assent and reaches the statute book. The Americans are well aware of the awkward aspects of that legislation and appear to be taking action on it.
