Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Banking Bill.


Banking Bill

When the Minister spoke I realised that I had tabled my amendment under the wrong clause; it should have been in Clause 64, not Clause 63. I wonder whether the Minister might like to answer this question. He spoke in terms of a general continuity obligation not lasting more than two years. I had meant to draft provision for a specific continuity obligation lasting for not more than two years. The point is that the residual organisation should not be put in the position of being a service provider to the transferee for ever and a day. I wanted to focus on that. Perhaps the Minister can answer that and possibly save me from having to bring this back on Report.
