Dúirt an Taoiseach nach bhfuil sé sásta. Inné, d'ardaigh mé anailís Grant Thornton leis, go bhfuil níos mó ná míle cásanna d'anacair morgáiste, a thaispeánann nach bhfuil pingin rua fágtha ag teallaigh lena gcuid morgáistí a íoc ag deireadh na míosa.
The Taoiseach said he was not satisfied with the situation, but when I asked him yesterday to give a commitment to ensure that no family in mortgage distress would be excluded from the insolvency process because they could not pay up-front, he refused. Grant Thornton released another report today showing the enormous burden on low- and middle-income families. A family earning €40,000 per year is €6,000 per year worse off under the Taoiseach's Government. Fianna Fáil, obviously, the Labour Party and Fine Gael have done this to struggling families.
