HC Deb 06 March 1978 vol 945 cc452-3W
Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection how many licences have been granted to date under the terms of the Consumer Credit Act 1974; how many applications are still in the pipeline; how many have been refused; and whether separate statistics are available for Scotland.

Mr. John Fraser

Since the Act imposes on the Director General of Fair Trading the duty of administering the licensing system, I am asking him to write to my hon. Friend.
