Consumer Credit Bill

Proceeding contribution from Andrew Love (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bills on Consumer Credit Bill.
I am not nearly as sanguine as the hon. Gentleman in relation to mortgaging and remortgaging when lenders are now offering sums equivalent to five times income. That is a matter of genuine concern. My question relates to responsible lending: is not there an onus on the industry, including all the major banks which now find that they have substantial bad debts on their books, to lend more responsibly?
