Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I cannot provide an exact date in that regard. The Government is pursuing a range of options in respect of this matter that will be additional to the mechanisms already in place to assist those who are experiencing serious difficulties repaying their mortgages and who are in distress. I understand the sentiments behind the Deputy's query. Work is ongoing in respect of a range of additional options relating to how best we might assist the people in question. I do not have a date in respect of the introduction of what is envisaged. As soon as anything is forthcoming, however, I will inform the Deputy.
