Proceeding contribution from Lord Myners (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
I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay, for his observations and comment. I repeat that this arrangement has been in place since the immediate post-war period. We have had an extraordinarily good succession of very high-quality governors. If it isn’t broken, we should not seek to mend it. The existing arrangement has worked well and is working well, and there is no reason why it should not continue to work well.
