Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on World Leaders Summit.

World Leaders Summit

My Lords, it would not be appropriate for me, at this Dispatch Box, to sound the death-knell of the G8. We shall just have to watch that space. It is absolutely clear that the G20 is the important body. At this time, it is the body which is most responsive to the needs of the 21st century. On the euro, at a time of such global economic turbulence it is even more important that the former Chancellor’s five economic tests are met.
