Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent progress has been made on the allocation of Libor fines.
At the Autumn Statement the Chancellor announced the allocation of a further £100m of LIBOR fines directly to military charities and good causes. This included £5m for the Gurkhas, £10m for veterans with hearing problems and £1m for the Great Western Air Ambulance. This Government is committed to allocating all LIBOR fines received to date within the life of this Parliament. A further update will be provided at the Budget.
