Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 27 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Lending (Regulation) Bill.
Lending (Regulation) Bill
I do not know whether the hon. Gentleman is about to finish, but he has not mentioned credit unions, unless I have missed something. I am seeking to set up branches of credit unions in my constituency precisely for the reasons that lie behind a lot of his thinking. Credit unions offer those who can least afford extravagant interest rate arrangements the opportunity to avoid loan sharks, and to live a reasonable and fair life with very modest amounts of money passing one way or the other.
