Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process: (Resumed) Ulster Bank
3:40 pm
Mr. Jim Brown:
I do not recall seeing any cases concerning Ulster Bank. If the Deputy has some, I will be happy to examine them. We are acutely aware of the issue. As Mr. Bell has stated, it is in our interest to keep the tenant in a property when it makes sense to do so. However, we still have an obligation towards the individual who borrowed the money in the first instance. There is a fine balance in getting the two approaches right. It it not our intent to evict either owner occupiers or tenants.
