Lords ChamberMy Lords, I am sure that the FSA will take note of the noble Lord’s suggestions about how it goes about its business.

My Lords, does the Minister agree that this might be a case for a WikiLeak? Will he also assure the House that, in looking at the proposals that are emerging with regard to the regulation of banking, a heavy emphasis will be put on transparency and openness in future?
