Proceeding contribution from David Jones (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.


Welsh Affairs

I know that the hon. Gentleman wants to intervene, but I have very little time. The tripartite system that was established directly by the Prime Minister proved wanting. Indeed, the Governor of the Bank of England commented that although the Northern Rock fiasco could not have been averted, it certainly could have been mitigated if the Bank of England had had direct and overarching responsibility for regulation. That is something that the next Conservative Government will introduce.
