Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether she has (a) received representations from and (b) held discussions with campaigners on the loan charge.

I know that the loan charge is a very important matter for many members and their constituents. Within my first two weeks in office, I had my first meeting with campaigners to discuss the loan charge. The Chancellor and I have been considering this matter since taking office and will provide an update in due course.
