Perhaps what I say will prevent the Minister from intervening, although if it does not it does not matter. That is why the duty in the Bill requiring councils to offer the deferred payment schemes and the Minister’s commitment on a public awareness programme is important. The loans are available but councils often do not tell people about them. Does the Minister still want to intervene?
