Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell-Savours (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 December 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander Limited (Determination of Compensation) Order 2008.


Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander Limited (Determination of Compensation) Order 2008

If I heard my noble friend correctly, he said before that the FSA would not comment on negotiations that were going on during this period—so, from the beginning of the year. That must apply to banks that still trade, but surely if a bank comes to the end of its life there can be a justification for publishing that information. Surely, commercial sensitivity is substantially reduced in those conditions. Also, it is the Glacier bond that I referred to for Iceland.
