Debate on the Address

Proceeding contribution from John Hemming (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 November 2006. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Debate on the Address.
The issue that particularly concerns me about Farepak is that the deposited money should have been on trust. If it were a firm of solicitors—or one of the many financial institutions that are regulated in this way—the money would be held on trust, and would be deemed to be a different type of money from the ordinary assets of the company. The banks would therefore be in error in taking the money to settle other debts. Therefore, I share the concern that has been expressed.
