HC Deb 10 March 1998 vol 308 c104W
Mr. Caplin

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will support the future development of credit unions. [33108]

Mrs. Liddell

The Government support fully the credit unions' ethos of self-help and thrift, and the encouragement they give people to save. We are actively examining ways to promote further growth while continuing the movement's current focus on poorer communities.
