Since the cyber-Minister is up to the mark, may I ask him about the activities of a website called Bestvalid, which was discovered recently selling the stolen bank details of 100,000 British citizens? Can he explain, as an up-to-the-minute cyber-Minister, how it was possible for this website to carry on for six months before being closed down, and how much of the £1.9 billion that he is targeting on cybercrime will be used proactively to close down sites of this kind?

The right hon. Gentleman knows, because his Select Committee has drawn attention to this in the past, that it is critically important that the Government work with all other agencies, including banks and private sector organisations, and the taskforce will be missioned to do that. It may be worth saying that this is summed up by the fact that the National Police Chiefs Council has publicly signed up to
“commit our full support to the objectives and actions of the…Taskforce”
to
“work in partnership to…protect the public from becoming victims of fraud and fraud scams, maximising opportunities to stop fraudsters from operating”,
in exactly the way he recommends.

That this House expresses its dismay that after 13 years the saga of BCCI has still not been resolved; notes that when the bank was closed by the then Government on the advice of the Bank of England, honourable Members were told that the bank had no money left to pay its creditors and staff; welcomes the fact that since then 70 per cent. of the money has been returned; is astonished that the rest of the money is now going to be spent on the fees for lawyers and accountants in a case where if one side loses the taxpayers will pay and if the other side loses the creditors will pay; further notes that one of the lawyers will be paid ??3 million for his services in this case and that the total bill after appeals will run into millions; and calls on the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry to instruct the Insolvency Service to act as an honest broker between the parties so that a deal can be done to avoid further litigation and so that the rest of the money can be paid to the former depositors.
