Consumer Credit Bill
9:25 am
Dr Jenny Tonge (Richmond Park, Liberal Democrat)
I apologise, first of all, for the absence of my hon. Friend, the Member for Gordon.
This is a new and interesting area for me: if you were coming to the Committee Stage of a Bill to regulate gynaecologists, Sir John, you would understand how I feel. It will be a very interesting experience. I have—this can be checked with our Whips—no personal experience of this subject, apart, I am proud to say, from my mortgage. However, I am not sure that my constituents are in the same position, as many, many people come to my surgery who have got into huge difficulties. For that reason my party and I welcome the Bill.
Question put and agreed to.
