View answerThe Deputy will be aware that responsibility for the implementation of personal insolvency legislation rests with my colleague, Frances Fitzgerald TD, Minister for Justice and Equality.
The Deputy will also be aware that the Taoiseach has previously announced that the Government is considering a range of options to support the existing framework and to improve the uptake of personal insolvency solutions. Given the importance of the issue, his Department is co-ordinating the response across the various Government Departments and agencies and I anticipate that a detailed announcement will be forthcoming shortly.
