That this House supports the British Heart Foundation's Prescription for the UK's Heart Health, which contains the commitments needed to protect the UK's heart health for the coming decade; notes that heart and circulatory disease is the UK's biggest killer; calls for the significant recent progress made towards preventing heart and circulatory disease to be preserved; expresses concerns over new challenges ahead including demographic changes, shifts in the burden of disease and a more stringent financial climate; is further concerned that the prevalence of heart and circulatory disease remains disproportionately high amongst people living in disadvantaged circumstances and from particular ethnic groups; and calls on the Government to meet these challenges by setting out a renewed approach to tackling heart and circulatory disease in England to reduce its incidence to one of the lowest levels in Western Europe.

That this House notes the ongoing lack of price competition in the home credit market and the devastating impact that high cost credit is having on the poorest communities as reported by Channel 4's Dispatches programme on 7 December 2009; further notes that the Competition Commission's remedies for this market have not had any impact since its inquiry into the home credit market in 2006; further notes that Provident Financial now charges ??82 for every ??100 lent, which is 26 per cent. higher than was reported three years ago; further notes that Provident now have an estimated 70 per cent. of the market and that the `unfair credit relationship' test introduced by the Consumer Credit Act 2006 has not led to a single instance of prices being lowered; believes that urgent and effective action is now required to help low income borrowers obtain credit at a fair price; and calls on the Government to provide the Office of Fair Trading with a power to cap prices in non-competitive areas of the credit market, or the Competition Commission to immediately review its remedies for the home credit market and or the Financial Services Authority to introduce a rule requiring banks to demonstrate how they are helping to expand access to affordable credit, for example by partnering with credit unions.

That this House congratulates the success of mutuals and recognises their important contribution to the UK's economy; notes that one in three citizens is a member of at least one mutual and the sector has continued to grow despite the dramatic economic backdrop; further notes that overall revenues now exceed ??98 billion which have risen from ??84 billion in 2008 and mutuals are going from strength to strength and provide security and choice for consumers; further notes there are currently 52 mutual building societies in the UK and collectively they have 22 million members, employ 42,300 people and have assets of ??341 billion; further notes that it is the ethics of the principle of mutuality that make these institutions so strong; further notes that not one building society survived as an independent British Bank after the regrettable demutualisations of the 1980s and 1990s; and urges the Government, as part of the restructuring of the banking sector, to enable and encourage the remutualisation of a significant part of it, including the conventional banking side of Northern Rock.
