Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Presbyterian Mutual Society.
Presbyterian Mutual Society
On the Iceland situation, does the hon. Gentleman agree that, whatever the technical legal position, which we will hear from the Government Front Bench, it is ironic that Government action to help savers in Icelandic banks helped to precipitate the problems in the PMS and caused its members to suffer? Although the Government may make a technical argument for not treating PMS members and Icelandic savers equally, they are real people who depend on their savings. Does he agree that whoever forms the next Government should treat those Irish savers and savers in the Icelandic banks equally?
