Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Banking Bill.

Banking Bill

I am grateful to the Minister. It will be extremely constructive if he looks at the issue before Report and returns with an amendment that meets the spirit in which he is taking it away and the spirit with which it was tabled. The noble Lord, Lord Newby, rightly raised the Treasury Select Committee report that came out late last week and which focused on the need to keep track in particular of these open-ended commitments that are being entered into. That was an element of the report specified in my amendment. I hope that the Minister will focus not only on payments but on commitments. With that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 174BA withdrawn. Clause 227 : ““Financial Institution”” Amendment 174C not moved. Clause 227 agreed.
