§ The Prime MinisterThe report of the Committee to Review the Functioning of Financial Institutions is being laid before the House and published today.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the right hon. Member for Huyton (Sir H. Wilson) and his fellow members. They have performed a notable service for the authorities and for the financial community generally in charting the financial system as it now is and as it might develop. The Government will be studying their findings and recommendations with the utmost care. I am sure that others to whom recommendations are directed will wish to do likewise.
