Proceeding contribution from Sheila Gilmore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 February 2012. It occurred during Opposition day on Banking (Responsibility and Reform).


Banking (Responsibility and Reform)

Given that the Minister feels that the industry is more stable, is he concerned to hear the chief executive of the National Australia bank, which owns the Clydesdale and Yorkshire banks, say today that the bank might have to consider selling, or at least restructuring, the business—partly because the UK Government's austerity programme has contributed to the harsh business environment, which is why the bank is carrying out a review?
