Action No. 1.19 stated the Government would work "with the Central Bank to ensure that the Code of Conduct on Mortgage Arrears provides a strong consumer protection framework". Has there been any progress on this? Will the code of conduct be voluntary or will there be some mandatory mechanism?

Action No. 1.20 stated "We will request the Central Bank to conduct an assessment on existing sustainable restructuring solutions". Is there any report on this to date? Action No. 1.21 stated "We will examine how the Mortgage to Rent scheme can be improved to facilitate more households". Is there a report on this? It was due in the fourth quarter, as was the Central Bank assessment.
