Proceeding contribution from Lord Myners (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Saving Gateway Accounts Bill.
Saving Gateway Accounts Bill
I would be very disappointed if people were saving only £1 a month, but I would not be disappointed if, in a particular month, someone felt that they could save only what represented a very small sum. It is for the account provider, having knowledge of their own efficiency and business plans, to reach their own determination in that respect. That is a sensible blend of social objective and commercial market practice.
