Proceeding contribution from Chris Leslie (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
In certain circumstances, Parliament should be sovereign. That is an important principle in our constitution. I do not think that regulators should be able to override Parliament, if that is the Minister's suggestion. I am pretty sure it is not. Ultimately, in certain circumstances, Parliament should be able to make the final decision. That is an important cornerstone of our constitution.
