Debate between Stephen Williams and Mark Prisk

Thursday 14th July 2011 Commons Chamber

[Mr Prisk]

Indeed; we have trebled the amount that the Labour party originally proposed to £3 billion. So, yes, additional funds are very much in place.

[Stephen Williams (Bristol West) (LD)]

Does my hon. Friend agree that, ideally, the home of the green investment bank will have a mix of commercial and ethical banking, a strong network of professional services firms, green non-governmental organisations, charities and sustainable businesses? That strongly suggests that the city of Bristol is the ideal home for the green investment bank.

[Mr Prisk]

We duly note that excellent representation.
