Matters Relating to the Banking Sector: Bank of Ireland
Mr. Tony McMahon:
Yes, and because of that potential dependency on the sale of the property, that is where the classification comes in. Those mortgages would be classified as non-performing from a European Banking Authority, EBA, and a European Central Bank, ECB, guidelines point of view. Like all of our non-performing mortgage customers, we have more than 200 staff just dealing with mortgage customers in difficulty. We proactively look to engage on an ongoing basis with those customers to make sure we are looking towards solutions that work for the customer also.
