Motion Text

That this House believes that far too many of its honourable Members' constituents are being trapped in usurious personal loan agreements, which include exorbitantly high charges, such as acceptance fees, insurance charges and interest rates; and believe that such charges and rates should be controlled by statute allowing for such costs to be limited to regularly reviewed levels in proportion to the loan service.
