Green Investment Bank

Proceeding contribution from George Freeman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2015. It occurred during Debate on Green Investment Bank.

The overriding principle is that we want to ensure that the bank is put on a footing where it has the freedom to operate and is able to raise the necessary capital without being jeopardised by having an investor base that is too fragmented and small to be effective, or too small or too large an interest to be sustainable. Both of those represent risks. We will need to take a view and ensure that we give it the best possible chance to be able to carry on and fulfil its remit. I will say something about its green remit in a minute.
