Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process: Discussion
4:10 pm
Ms Julie Sadlier:
I would add that we have done some research on bankruptcy because many people have made inquiries about it, and even in the UK personal insolvency is a preferred resolution to bankruptcy from a banking point of view when the persons concerned are 20 something years old. Despite the liberal and more advanced nature of that system, bankruptcy still holds less weight for credit into the future.
