I am talking about the same legislation but in a different context. Given the emphasis being placed by some lending agencies on extracting a response from borrowers that they may not be able to give and the lack of regard for their particular circumstances, will the Government consider introducing the legislation as a matter of urgency?

The promised date for the introduction of the legislation does not adequately address the emerging situation because what some lending agencies call a solution means people being evicted from their home. It is urgently required that we introduce the legislation now.
