Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 10 July 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8: 2008 Summit.


G8: 2008 Summit

My Lords, I believe that it is extended to them. As the noble Lord will see in the Statement, when he has the chance to look at it, we describe the forensic work that will go on to try to track bank accounts and so on, precisely to deal with the point that he has rightly raised. In fact, I have just been told that the provision applies just to the individuals, so I apologise for what I have just said because I had understood that it was extended to the families, too. But the work that will go on in tracking into which bank accounts the money has gone, which is described as forensic in the Statement, will be essential to tackle the point that the noble Lord has made.
