The Minister started dismantling the mortgage interest supplement before we know if a new insolvency system works. The Government is taking away a quarter next year and a quarter in the following year. It will take a year or 18 months to see if the new resolution process is working. Why not delay the start of the phasing out until we see if the new process works? That is all we are asking and I do not believe it is unreasonable.
