Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Consumer Credit Bill 2005-06.


Consumer Credit Bill

The clause refers to ““deceitful”” practices. Would a practical example be the sending out of statements by credit card companies during public holidays so that the recipient has no chance of paying the bill before the specified date and therefore incurs a penalty charge?
