In my view, the bank has abused this situation. The Minister for Finance is on the record of the Dáil as saying this week that he does not view the threats of legal repossession as the banks meeting their targets. He told me two months ago that he was going to communicate that to Bank of Ireland. I know he is playing politics in this and he hides behind the Central Bank, but has he written to the bank expressing the opinion he expressed in the Dáil - that the threats of legal repossession should not be used to reach the MART targets?
