Banking (Special Provisions) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Yvette Cooper (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills on Banking (Special Provisions) Bill.
We are taking the bank into public ownership for a reason that is in the public interest—that is rather different from the ongoing function that the bank performs. That is a different, private banking function, and we want to get the bank into the private sector as rapidly as possible.
