Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (Conservative) 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

That is a wholly unsatisfactory answer. These banks had operations in the UK and there are bodies in the UK, not least the Treasury, that have measures of responsibility for them. To say that questions have to be asked of the Icelandic authorities is simply unacceptable; we are talking about actions by the UK Government. That is what our questions are about.
