Consumer Focus Scotland welcomes the opportunity to provide written evidence to the Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee in relation to the final report of the Independent Commission on Banking. Consumer Focus Scotland is the independent consumer champion for Scotland. We work on issues that affect consumers in Scotland, while at the same time feeding into and drawing on work done at a GB, UK and European level. We are part of Consumer Focus, and our work on financial services is led by our colleagues at Consumer Focus in London. While Consumer Focus Scotland has not carried out any work in relation to the Independent Commission on Banking, our colleagues at Consumer Focus have considered the consumer issues arising from its work. They have not looked specifically at the implications for Scotland, but it is likely that similar issues will arise from consumers wherever they live within the UK.
