Financial Services Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stella Creasy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Financial Services Bill.

It is wonderful to hear the hon. Gentleman talking about the positive aspects of capping. I suggest he look at total cost capping, because arrangement fees is not the only issue; there are also issues to do with late payment fees and the incentive they give lenders to push people to keep rolling loans over. Like the hon. Gentleman, I want this to be a future-proof—that is a dreadful term—proposal. We must also ensure lenders cannot get around it, however, which is why we need to cover all the costs involved.
