Amendment of the law

Proceeding contribution from Sally Keeble (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 22 April 2009. It occurred during Budget debate on Amendment of the law.
The right hon. Gentleman is making a very interesting speech on a matter that the Select Committee is considering. Will he give full credit to the Government for the asset protection scheme and, through the Bank of England, the asset purchase facility, which between them have done a huge amount to clear some of the toxic assets off banks' balance sheets and get liquidity starting to flow back and starting to produce results in the lowering of long-term interest rates?
