Deputy Pearse Doherty's proposal involving a figure of €125 is an attempt to capture more moneylenders. I accept what the Deputy is saying. Moneylenders know their customers and the reason they lend is they know they will usually get their money back. Even with a limit of €125, there would be nothing to stop a moneylender giving ten loans of €124.
