Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [HL]

I am equally interested in the start-up of this company. When it starts, it has to have expenses. If its share capital is not sufficient—if it is going to have any substantial share capital, that is, but perhaps it will only be a £100 company—it will need a bridging loan, otherwise it will never come into operation. It has to set up systems and employ people to operate them in advance of any money coming from the banks and building societies from dormant accounts. Will we have more details about the company before we get to the further stages of the Bill? Without such details, it is extremely difficult to judge whether the scheme is sound.
