Bank Notes: Design
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what discussions her Department has had with the Bank of England on the removal of historic figures from UK bank notes.
Answered by Lucy Rigby
As set out in the Memorandum of Understanding between HM Treasury and the Bank of England, the Bank of England is entirely responsible for the design, production, issue and distribution of banknotes. HM Treasury has not discussed images for banknote design with the Bank of England.
