Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 July 2012. It occurred during Debate on Professional Standards in the Banking Industry.


Professional Standards in the Banking Industry

There is something else I want to say to the House. Of course we can act swiftly or follow the Opposition motion, which means delay, but there is a

broader point. A Joint Committee can summon people under oath and it can summon papers. I commit to giving it any resources it needs to do its job. It can sit in public, and we can get to the bottom of what happened. But there is this final point for the House to consider—[Interruption.]
