Proceeding contribution from Baroness Burt of Solihull (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.


Financial Services Bill

The point of payday lending is that it should be for a very short period. Such issues arise when there are innumerable roll-overs, as outlined by the hon. Member for Walthamstow (Stella Creasy). What we hope the industry will do and the review will achieve is either to confine roll-overs to a small number or to abolish them altogether, which would address the problem of the £2,000, which no one in this Chamber wants to see.
