Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Credit Servicers Directive: Discussion
Mr. Edmund Honohan:
That is not right. There is a new understanding on the High Court Bench. I do not want to misrepresent my colleagues here. Once a case gets to the High Court - if it gets past the Circuit Court - those involved they are taking their responsibilities seriously. Unfortunately, some have come in with predetermined views on the notion that the money was borrowed and therefore must be paid back. They can see no justice in denying the right to possession, and that is why it is important to have the EU directive implemented in full.
