Proceeding contribution from David Mowat (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
I thank the shadow Minister for his lecture on macro-prudential tools. I was on the Joint Committee and I certainly did not recommend the inclusion of a growth objective, because I believe that stability and growth are potentially competing objectives. We are passing the Bill because of what happened in October 2008. I was concerned that anything that diluted the absolute requirement for stability might give an excuse for failure, which I did not want to arise.
