For a remediated house, Ms Byrne is making it clear to this committee the banks do not require certification on the entire property. The banks, therefore, will be willing to lend to a person to purchase an affected house that still has deleterious materials in the foundations or inner blocks provided the outer leaf was replaced and certified. She is saying the BPFI's members are happy to lend on the same commercial basis.
