HC Deb 22 July 1969 vol 787 c327W
62. Mr. David Steel

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the Scottish Economic Planning Council's current examination of the failure of persons to set up new businesses in Scotland, he will allow the Scottish banks to revert to their former practice of lending on the security of their own and the guarantor's opinion of the borrower, pending the Council's report.

Mr. Harold Lever

No.
