The Green Book sets out that all new policies, programmes and projects, whether revenue, capital or regulatory, should be subject to comprehensive but proportionate assessment, wherever it is practicable, so as best to promote the public interest. Training and accreditation in the use of Green Book methodology is being extended across the public sector through the Better Business Cases programme, which aims to embed use of the best-practice five-case model in public service culture. In general it is not the Government\u2019s policy to publish business cases, although exceptions are made when the Government considers publication to be of exceptional public interest.<\/p>

The Government has fundamentally reformed regulation of the consumer credit market. The Financial Conduct Authority\u2019s (FCA) new, more robust regulatory regime is improving protections for consumers, including through the introduction of a cap on the cost of payday loans as required by Government.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government and the FCA have made it clear to payday lenders that real-time market-wide credit data sharing is key to more effective affordability assessments. In its November 2014 policy statement, the FCA set out there has been substantial progress made by the payday industry, with \u201cthe vast majority of the market now participating in real-time data sharing\u201d. The FCA has committed to press the industry for further improvements, and has said it will make rules if it detects any loss of momentum.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The FCA can use its flexible rule-making powers across the consumer credit market where it deems necessary to support its objectives, including protecting consumers.<\/p>
