Proceeding contribution from Andrew Bingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 December 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Debt Advice and Debt Management.


Debt Advice and Debt Management

With his usual modesty, my hon. Friend just briefly mentioned the campaign for financial education in schools, on which he has led the way in the House—I think that the all-party group on financial education for young people, which he set up, is the largest in the House. Does he agree that financial education is very important to tackling the problem in the long run, particularly given that there are now so many different ways in which people can purchase things and borrow money? This education is crucial for future generations.
