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

Banking (Responsibility and Reform)

We have a very large holding in RBS and we clearly will not be divesting ourselves of much of that holding for probably the next 10 years or so. What thought has the Minister given to using RBS, with its expertise and huge distribution network, as a mechanism for credit easing? I am sure that all Members hear from business people that these problems are not going to be solved unless we ensure that our SMEs have access to the capital that they so desperately need.
