Proceeding contribution from Lord Newby (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 10 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [HL].

Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [HL]

As the noble Baroness said, the substance of this amendment appears to have been accepted by the BBA. Given that we have a voluntary scheme in prospect—until we can change it on Report—if the BBA supports the substance of the amendment, it is difficult to see why it should not be put in the Bill to reassure everybody. There is no issue of principle in any of the actors in this saga around this, so why not put it in the Bill and be done with it?
