Financial Services Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Eatwell (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 5 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Financial Services Bill.

My Lords, perhaps I may simply elaborate a little on the question posed by the noble Baroness, Lady Kramer. Given that there is not to be a transfer of obligations between platforms, and given that the collapse of a platform could impose significant systemic risk on the economy with a large number of unclear positions, are we to understand that the lender of last resort will be required to stand behind a collapsed platform?
