Proceeding contribution from Lord Whitty (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 add my voice to the growing swell of support for the amendment. In doing so, I declare my interest as the chair of Consumer Focus. The amendment addresses exactly the kind of concerns that the ordinary consumer of banking services is worried about and which affect the viability of many small businesses. I ask my noble friend to look at this and to either accept it or come up with a similar amendment.
