Property repossession legislation
Willie O’Dea asks about the land and conveyancing amendment Bill removing barriers to bank repossessions; Rabbitte confirms it will proceed and was approved by Government the previous week.
No. 25 on the legislative programme, the land and conveyancing law reform (amendment) Bill, is designed to remove any barriers in the way of banks that wish to repossess property from people to whom they have lent money. Does the Government intend to proceed with this legislation? If so, when will we see it?
Comment on this
Yes, we intend to proceed with it. It was approved by Government last week.
