Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 December 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
I share my hon. Friend’s concern about the issue and I applaud him for his work on it. When he gave me a copy of the leaflet, I thought that the APR was a misprint, but it is not. I notice that the small print also claims that there are ““no hidden charges””—on an APR of 177 per cent. This is a very serious issue and I will draw it to the attention of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry.
