Proceeding contribution from Chi Onwurah (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Regulatory and Banking Reform.


Regulatory and Banking Reform

Northern Rock is headquartered in my constituency and my predecessor MP, Jim Cousins, played an important role in saving the bank when the Conservative party had no understanding of the crisis and would have let it go to the wall. Could the Minister explain how the auction will be structured so as to promote Northern Rock's mutualisation, which he says he wishes to see? Could he also say what guarantees he will offer on the name, headquarters, jobs and community contribution of Northern Rock?
