MoJ set to comment on DMPs - 12/03/2010
The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) will ask on Monday for more time to consider the findings of its consultation into debt management plans (DMPs), Credit Today can reveal.
As part of a series of announcements on debt issues due to be unveiled on Monday, the Ministry of Justice is expected to say that the responses to its consultation are still being considered, and it will refrain from announcing immediate legislative action.
The MoJ closed its consultation on DMPs on 18 December, but due to the sheer volume of responses to the consultation, civil servants are understood to have found difficulties in finding a solution.
An MOJ spokesperson told Credit Today: "We will be making an announcement over the next couple of days about debt. We will be mentioning debt management plans, but it won’t be a response to the consultation."
