Debate on the Address

Proceeding contribution from Michael Fallon (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 November 2007. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Debate on the Address.
Yes, the Chancellor has been too keen to blame the banks for reckless lending, when his system is responsible for supervising the work of the banks and when his performance since the middle of August has failed us. We learned today that he was told long before the fatal weekend that the system of depositor protection was too weak and that the Governor wanted it improved. He failed the Governor, and he has further questions to answer.
