BACKBENCH BUSINESS

Treatment of SMEs by RBS Global Restructuring Group

Clive Lewis

That this House is deeply concerned by the treatment of small and medium-sized enterprises

(SMEs) by the Global Restructuring Group of the Royal Bank of Scotland; notes that there are

wider allegations of malpractice in financial services and related industries; believes that this

indicates a systemic failure to effectively protect businesses, which has resulted in financial

scandals costing tens of billions of pounds; further believes that a solution requires the

collective and collaborative effort of regulators, Parliament and Government; and calls for an

independent inquiry into the treatment of SMEs by financial institutions and the protections

afforded to them, and the rapid establishment of a tribunal system to deal effectively with

financial disputes involving SMEs.

B. REMAINING ORDERS AND NOTICES

Business in this section has not yet been scheduled for a specific date. It has therefore been

set down formally to be taken in the Chamber today but is not expected to be taken today.

1. HIGH SPEED RAIL (WEST MIDLANDS - CREWE) BILL: SECOND READING

Notes:

The Speaker has not yet considered this Bill for certification.

2. HIGH SPEED RAIL (WEST MIDLANDS - CREWE) BILL: SECOND READING -

REASONED AMENDMENT

Michael Fabricant

Jeremy Lefroy

Sir William Cash

That this House, while recognising the increasing need for additional north-south rail line

capacity to relieve congestion on the West Coast Main Line south of the Midlands and to

improve connectivity between major cities and with London, declines to give the High

Speed Rail (West Midlands - Crewe) Bill a Second Reading because (1) there are better

ways to address any rail capacity issues north of the Midlands, (2) the line set out in the

Bill is routed through unspoiled countryside unnecessarily damaging the environment

including wildlife habitats, ancient woodlands and waterways, fails to connect via HS2

Phase 1 with HS1, the Channel Tunnel and the European continent, fails to connect

directly through HS2 Phase 1 with potential airport hubs for London and the south-east of

England, and fails to connect directly to existing major mainline stations and the existing

rail network, (3) the Bill provides inadequate compensation to those blighted by the route

and those whose property is subject to compulsory purchase orders, (4) the Bill fails to

provide for sufficient public transport to disperse HS2 passengers disembarking at

London Euston, and (5) the Bill does not implement a more environmentally sympathetic,

better integrated, and more cost-effective route, such as the route originally proposed by

Arup which would have used existing transport corridors minimising environmental

damage and reducing costs by around £10 billion, and which would have connected

directly with HS1 and the continent, London Heathrow Airport, Birmingham International

Airport, and major conurbations.

3. HIGH SPEED RAIL (WEST MIDLANDS - CREWE) BILL: MONEY

Mel Stride

That, for the purposes of any Act resulting from the High Speed Rail (West Midlands -

Crewe) Bill, it is expedient to authorise the payment out of money provided by Parliament

of:

(1) any expenditure incurred by the Secretary of State in consequence of the Act, and

(2) any increase attributable to the Act in the sums payable out of money so provided

under any other enactment.
