Proceeding contribution from Lord Brooke of Sutton Mandeville (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.

Electoral Administration Bill

My Lords, mine is a de minimis question arising out of my noble friend’s amendment. I understand the difference in significance under these provisions between loans of £200 and £5,000. However, I am interested to know whether a loan that began at less than £200, which would have had no initial significance, but which then rolled up interest, in due course taking the sum above £200 in cumulative total, would have acquired the status of a regulated transaction once it passed £200.
