Proceeding contribution from Lord Eatwell (Labour) 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

My noble friend’s remarks on Amendment 195 are enormously important. The commitment to have practitioner members as active members of the FSC, and indeed of the court, is very important. I was a member of the board of the old Securities and Futures Authority, which had a majority of practitioner members. I was enormously impressed by the knowledge, effectiveness and commitment of my fellow members of the board. I believe that that could be replicated in the court and in the Financial Stability Committee.
