Proceeding contribution from Ian Pearson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 3 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [Lords].


Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [Lords]

In those circumstances, I think that the customer would still be able to reclaim their money, and that would be the right thing to do.
