Proceeding contribution from Stephen Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sale of Student Loans Bill.


Sale of Student Loans Bill

I find it ironic that Conservative Front Benchers have tabled the amendments, whatever political perspective the hon. Gentleman supported in the 1980s. In all its privatisations in the 1980s and 1990s, the Conservative party did not necessarily guarantee full value for money for the taxpayer—[Interruption.] The hon. Gentleman looks sceptical—let me give the example of the Royal Ordnance sell-off or even the railway sell-off.
