HC Deb 19 July 1999 vol 335 c447W
Dr. Cable

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what assessment he has made of how the provisions in the document, "Freedom of Information: Consultation on Draft Legislation", Cm 3455, would affect the operation of the Financial Services Authority; and if he will make a statement. [91253]

Ms Hewitt

It is intended that the FSA should be subject to the Freedom of Information legislation and the implications of the proposed provisions for the FSA's operations are being considered. The FSA will be submitting their response to the Home Office consultations exercise in due course.
