Will the Taoiseach and the Minister for Finance call in the boards of two State-owned banks, AIB and Permanent TSB, to question them on their role in the tracker mortgage scandal whereby they have wrongfully taken over €100 million from customers? Those same banks along with others have repossessed the family homes of over 100 individuals, more than sit in this Chamber at this point in time. Can the Taoiseach imagine if each of us was overcharged by a bank and, as a result of that overcharging, lost our family homes? There would be uproar. There are approximately 100 citizens in that position while others have been bankrupted as a result of the process. In total, 15,000 individuals are affected. The least we can expect is that the Taoiseach, acting on behalf of Irish citizens, calls in the two State-owned banks and asks the boards about their role in denying these individuals what was rightfully theirs in the first place.

Obviously, the Minister for Finance is in touch with banks on a regular basis. I will consult with him to see what action has been taken here.

Will the Taoiseach, as holder of that office, call in the boards?

Deputy Doherty has described a situation there that nobody likes to see, and banks have a responsibility in this, clearly.

The Taoiseach has a responsibility.

I will come back to the Deputy.
