Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
The key issue in our regulatory system that we are seeking to restore is judgment by the regulator, and I will explain how the Bill will enable us to do that. I agree with my hon. Friend that the financial services are an incredibly important industry for this country. They employ more people than any other industry in Britain and, crucially, its proper regulation is not only good for the economy, but essential to prevent taxpayers from being exposed to what they have been exposed to in recent years.
