Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [HL]

My noble friend, who knows more about tax than I do, says, ““Yes, probably””. That is probably true, so we need to consider all these issues. The difficulty in this case is that the Minister is replying for the Government but, in a sense, is a proxy for the bank. Perhaps he could say at a later stage what the Government understand the position to be. That might be helpful if this matter turns out to be more complicated than we thought. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
