HC Deb 03 March 1988 vol 128 c657W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what measures are being undertaken by his Department to assist people to deal with the problems associated with indebtedness in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Walker

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry has responsibility for consumer credit matters and consumer protection generally. However funding from my Department is provided under the urban programme to a number of organisations, including for example some citizens' advice bureaux, which offer advisory services which include assistance on money-related problems.
