Proceeding contribution from David Mundell (Conservative) 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

Is the hon. Gentleman suggesting that some form of commission or levy should be deducted when people come into businesses in my constituency en route back to England and ask for Scots notes to be changed into English notes because they are concerned about taking Scots notes back to England? As I explained in my speech, such requests have become common because people are worried about possible difficulties. The retailers do not charge a commission, and I am sure that the hon. Gentleman is not suggesting that they should do so.
