Proceeding contribution from Lord Myners (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 13 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Banking Bill.

Banking Bill

I beg the indulgence of the Committee; I am still making progress on my learning curve. In my experience of answering Questions at the Dispatch Box on Bradford & Bingley, Northern Rock and other areas where the Treasury and the Government have involved themselves—been obliged to involve themselves—in banks, I have regularly felt that I have been held to account. That is what I had in mind.
