Enterprise Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Sajid Javid (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 February 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Enterprise Bill [Lords].

The hon. Gentleman raises an important issue, and what I am about to come on to perhaps addresses some of the concerns. Similar concerns were raised in the other place, as I am sure he was aware. The GIB will create a special share, which will ensure that its green mission is guarded by an independent party once the bank is sold, and that share will be put in place without legislation. Mandating that in legislation is entirely unnecessary and it is unlikely to work, but the GIB has assured us that that will happen.
