Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mackinlay (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 6 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scottish Banknotes (Acceptability in United Kingdom) Bill.


Scottish Banknotes (Acceptability in United Kingdom) Bill

An Eagle—or it could be a Mundell, or a Mundell-Mackinlay, note. However, it is certainly time that this issue was addressed, and it would be very healthy if such an idea were taken on board. The awareness issue is important, but we can overcome that if we know that there is a common side reflecting the variants of the United Kingdom, and the names of the various issuing banks on the other side. I commend and support the Bill, and I hope that the Minister will indicate that the Government will reflect on the issues raised by the hon. Gentleman, myself and others.
