Business of Joint Committee
No Consent, No Sale Bill 2019: Discussion

Mr. Gary Tobin:

I do not think necessarily the two Bills are comparable in respect of the magnitude of impact. The Bill before us is considerably more radical in what it proposes to do.

The previous Private Members' Bill sought to regulate a particular actor in the market whereas this Bill essentially proposes to prohibit banks selling mortgages. The two Bills are somewhat different. This Bill is much more radical legislation which would likely have more radical implications as a result.
