Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
Does my right hon. Friend accept that the crisis was caused in very large part by a complete failure of the auditing industry? If the auditors of all those companies and banks had spotted that worthless bits of paper, claimed as assets, were flooding the world, we might not be where we are now. Does he agree that we need to do something fundamental about auditing?
