Howells Home Improvements

EDM number 669 in 2006-07, proposed by Paul Flynn on 17/01/2007.

That this House is appalled that a company that went into liquidation in 2006 continues to trade as Howells Windows and Conservatories of Gibbs Road, Newport; understands that the company has pressurised at least nine customers to pay deposits of sums up to £9,000 without subsequently starting any work; notes that the company continues to seek work and deposits in 2007; and is concerned that few remedies are available in law for the customers to retrieve their deposits or to prosecute the offenders.

This motion has been signed by a total of 18 MPs.
