Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

Does my hon. Friend agree that those same banks are continuing to build up their balance sheets by not lending to small businesses—precisely the businesses that need investment now to grow, if we are to achieve the growth forecasts? There is nothing in the Budget that will force the banks to make sure that vital capital is supplied to those growing industries.
