No, under the legislation, if a tenant within 90 days has offered €450,000 and someone comes along to that auction and offers €451,000, there is no obligation - I questioned the Department officials on this specific point last week - to go back to the person who has offered €450,000 and ask if they can match €451,000.
That is not in the draft Bill.
