Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Building Societies (Funding) and Mutual Societies (Transfers) Bill.


Building Societies (Funding) and Mutual Societies (Transfers) Bill

My interpretation would be that the Treasury could stipulate what happens within the jurisdiction of the UK but not necessarily elsewhere. Therefore, would not it be expedient for any pan-European organisation to operate as a subsidiary in the United Kingdom, to fulfil any of the British Government's stipulations, and to operate on a connected but not identical basis in other parts of Europe?
