Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Rising (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 March 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
My Lord, the noble Lord finished his remarks by saying that it would be a contribution to transparency. However, Her Majesty’s Government propose exactly the contrary: to have meetings outside of the quarterly meetings that will not be minuted. If that is the case, all that will happen is that, if there is something that might possibly embarrass Her Majesty’s Government or which the Government do not wish to be seen for reasons other than those of commercial confidentiality, they will simply postpone those until a discussion or a meeting between the quarterly meetings.
