Proceeding contribution from David Heath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Equitable Life.

Equitable Life

Does not the fault with the Government’s position extend rather further than that? Not only have they ignored the findings of the ombudsman and refused to accept them, but they have engaged in an exercise of foot-dragging, procrastination and temporising. They have done everything possible to prevent this matter from being dealt with properly and to prevent these people from getting the justice that they deserve. Is that not the indictment against the Government in this case?
