Proceeding contribution from Lord Higgins (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 10 March 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
The Minister is of course right to distinguish between the article and the so-called Volcker rule, but I am not clear from his speech at Second Reading and this afternoon what his attitude is towards separating risky banking from less risky banking. That is, in essence, what we mean when we say Glass-Steagall. He turned it down but did not say why.
