<\/p>
In addition, in 2013/14 every local authority and Valuation Joint Board in England, Wales and Scotland received a share of £3,984,068funding to support the costs of activities to maximise electoral registration.<\/p>

The Government has fundamentally reformed regulation of the consumer credit market.

Wonga has voluntarily agreed to pay compensation totaling more than £2.6m to around 45,000 customers in relation to unfair debt collection practices between 2008 and 2010. The requirement agreed by Wonga is available at http://www.fca.org.uk/your-fca/documents/requirement-notices/wonga-group-limited-vreq<\/a>.

The Government has already strengthened the new regime by giving the FCA the ability to impose unlimited fines for breaches of regulatory requirements that take place after 1 April 2014.<\/p>"}
