Proceeding contribution from Baroness Turner of Camden (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 have been listening to this debate as a non-expert, but as a very concerned member of the depositing public. Continuity of service is a matter of grave concern to many of us. I really do not know what I would do without my bank. Therefore, the whole idea of continuity is basic to the whole idea of security. I hope that my noble friend will consider this amendment with a view to incorporating it or something like it in the Bill.
