Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

Will proposals be brought before the House to provide some comfort to the 6,500 householders who were unable to pay their mortgage at all last year, the 26,000 homeowners who are in mortgage arrears for more than three months and the increasing number of householders who are being threatened with repossession or was what we heard from the Minister at the weekend just more hot air and more cruel misleading of people who are in difficulty because the last thing they want is a Minister coming out blowing his own trumpet and giving them a bum steer?
