Consumer Credit Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Hepburn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bills on Consumer Credit Bill.
Has the Minister thought about making representations to the Chancellor of the Exchequer for a windfall tax on the billions pounds of profits made by the high street banks every year so that we can fund an extension of credit unions that deal with a totally different market from the banks, which do not want to know about low-paid borrowers, and can also fund an education process so that people know the difference between priority and non-priority debts?
