Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Consumers, Estate Agents and Redress Bill [Lords].

Consumers, Estate Agents and Redress Bill [Lords]

I am sorry to interrupt the hon. Lady’s constructive contribution, but does she agree that, as the average sale fee is about £3,000, a maximum penalty set at that amount will be wholly inadequate because it will not deter an estate agent from conducting shoddy business? The penalty should have been several times that amount.
