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, the noble Lord is right that my right honourable friend the Prime Minister was arguing 10 years ago for these reforms, and I think he will find that at every subsequent meeting he has been arguing for them. However, it is only now with the global crisis that other world leaders see that these reforms are absolutely necessary. They have all signed up to ensuring the reform of these global systems to meet the needs of the 21st century.
