HC Deb 01 July 1999 vol 334 c262W
Mr. Loughton

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what response his Department has made to the International Organisation of Securities Commission's report on the Reduction of Systemic Risk and Securities Activity on the Internet published in September 1998. [R] [89328]

Ms Hewitt

The IOSCO report "Securities Activity on the Internet" examined the regulatory and enforcement issues posed by securities activities conducted over the Internet. The Government have found the IOSCO report helpful in considering the issues raised by new technologies in the context of the Financial Services and Markets Bill.
