Richard Bruton
Ceist:420 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for the Environment Heritage and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the fact that private lending institutions will only become involved in lending arrangements under affordable schemes if the clawback is treated as a secondary charge; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that this is forcing local authorities to purchase and sell on the house in order to protect the clawback; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
