Saving Gateway Accounts Bill
10:45 am
Brian Pomeroy: I chair the Financial Inclusion Taskforce, which advises the Treasury on a range of issues concerned with financial inclusion. About a year ago the topic of savings was added to our terms of reference, so since then we have included savings in our remit and have looked in particular at the saving gateway and given the Treasury our view of it. I personally took part in some of the early discussions between Treasury officials and potential providers of the saving gateway.
