Proceeding contribution from Andrew Love (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Consumer Credit Bill.
Consumer Credit Bill
I am convinced by the evidence, especially that produced by Bristol university, on the negative impact of a cap on interest rates. However, I have attended lively debates in which there is still a bit of give and take on that. Evidence from Europe and other places suggests that there are ways to get around some of those negative impacts. Is the Minister still prepared to discuss the issue? Will he look again at including a power that can be used should the evidence change?
