Conclusion
The House could, if it thought it necessary to increase the capacity and broaden the expertise of the Treasury Committee in order to undertake scrutiny of financial services, expand the facility under Standing Order No 137A(1)(e) for non-members of the Committee to take part in certain proceedings. This provision currently enables only members of other committees to participate, but it could be adapted so as to permit the Committee to invite any Member of the House to do so.

Finally, while I note the Committee’s conclusion that they do not see a clear need for the creation of a new committee or a new independent body, I would also like to reiterate that it is rightly a matter for Parliament to consider the appropriate structure for its scrutiny.
