Proceeding contribution from Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 June 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8 Summit.


G8 Summit

Following the Prime Minister’s cryptic response to the question from my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for North-East Fife (Sir Menzies Campbell) about the G8’s commitment to fighting corruption, why should any major British company not assume that if it secures substantial business and employment by offering bribes to an overseas official in an allied country, the British Government will turn a blind eye to any breaches of the law and of our international obligations?
