We're back from summer holidays - and in our first episode, we're turning our attention to a busy week in the House of Lords. In the first half of the show, we're discussing the Report Stage of the Financial Services & Markets Bill - and the latest deliberations about reforms to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

In the second half of the show, we discuss the latest evidence session at the Lords Financial Services Regulation Committee, as it concludes its consumer insurance regulation enquiry.

We finish off the show with a brief update on Motor Finance.
