I understand and appreciate the brief contribution made by the Leader this evening, in which he pointed out, quite rightly, that the Minister had stated legislation is in place that covers illegal moneylending. However, the Minister also referred to the infrequency of prosecutions. Why are prosecutions infrequent if there is legislation on the Statute Book that is effective in dealing with this difficulty?
