Proceeding contribution from Lord Hamilton of Epsom (Conservative) 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]

I should be grateful if the Minister would come back to me on the question of charitable contributions and the juxtaposition that one might make between them. If you compared one set of accounts for one year with another, you could see whether charitable contributions had been cut as contributions to the reclaim fund went up. If the reclaim fund is to publish this information, will it be done in the form of a league table? We are talking about percentages rather than bald figures, because the contribution to the reclaim fund vis-à-vis the total number of assets that that bank or building society manages is the relevant figure. Will they be put in a list in order of percentage?
