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

Mr. Gary Tobin:

The 1991 voluntary code of practice is arcane. It was put in place at a time when, as I understand it, building societies were demutualising and there was concern that if individuals' mortgages were sold, they could lose out on a windfall cash gain when a building society was demutualised.
