answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/10/2017 answer text <p>As was the case with previous Administrations, it is not the Treasury's practice to provide details of these discussions.</p><p> </p><p>The Financial Conduct Authority has put in place regulations protecting borrowers, including a requirement that lenders should deal fairly with customers in payment difficulties. Lenders are also required to conduct an interest-rate ‘stress test’ on all new mortgages. This insures against the risk of a significant increase in the number of indebted households in the case of an interest rate rise.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 24/10/2017 15:54:44 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
