‹ Order of Business Mortgage arrears contact rules
Summary
Senator Daly calls for a debate on the new mortgage-arrears code, arguing that excessive contact with the 145,000 people in arrears may be unlawful.
The 145,000 who are in arrears will not be protected by the previous code of conduct whereby they could be contacted only three times a month. Now they can be contacted three times an hour. I ask for a debate on this because I understand the code of conduct is illegal. I ask the Leader for a debate on the question whether this code of conduct has any basis in law.
