Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Elystan-Morgan (Crossbench). It was answered on Wednesday, 25 March 2009.
Building Societies
- Question
- My Lords, may I ask a question that is slightly wider than the original Question? It relates to credit unions. Does the noble Lord agree that the time is now very ripe indeed for the fullest consideration to be given to government assistance to credit unions, bearing in mind that there is ample evidence that more and more people are all the time falling into the clutches of loan sharks?
- Answer
-
My Lords, the Government are already giving considerable support to credit unions, and I believe that I evidenced that in my answer to an earlier question.
