Bernard Durkan Deputy Bernard J. Durkan Fine Gael

There is an urgent need to bring the Central Bank (consolidation) Bill before the House with a view to curtailing the activity of lenders which are now aggressively pursuing home owners and small business people with the intention of repossessing, and dispossessing them of, their houses, adding to an already serious housing situation. When might we expect that Bill to come before the House?

My understanding is that it is being drafted but I will try to come back with a more accurate date.
