Proceeding contribution from Richard Bacon (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Consumer Credit Bill.
Consumer Credit Bill
On the unfairness test, does the Minister accept the point made by the right hon. Member for Leeds, West (John Battle), that many individuals involved in such cases do not want to get anywhere near court? If so, what does he have to say to him? It is one thing to say that an alternative dispute resolution is available, but people—in particular those at the lower end—do not need a neutral arbiter, but need someone to stand up for them against these wicked people?
