Written question asked by Gareth Thomas (Labour) on Friday, 19 July 2019, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 23 July 2019. It was answered by Nigel Adams (Conservative) on Monday, 2 September 2019 on behalf of the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.


Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport: Credit Unions

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, pursuant to the Answer of 9 July 2019 to Question 271326, for what reasons his Department does not offer a payroll deduction service to enable employees to join a credit union; and if he will make a statement.

Answer

I can confirm the department currently does not have the facility to allow staff to join a credit union through payroll deductions. Staff can still make arrangements to contribute to a credit union via direct debit.
