Dermot Ahern (Louth, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 27:

In page 64, to delete lines 44 and 45.

This amendment will delete section 97(5). In so far as this subsection suggests it may be possible to apply to a court for an order for sale of a house which is subject to a house loan mortgage other than by applying for an order under section 99, it is misleading. An application for a court order to exercise the power of sale must be made under section 99 by the lending institution to exercise the power of sale in such cases. To avoid any doubt on the point, I have decided to drop subsection (5) entirely.
