1. To ask the Minister for Finance his views on the standard variable mortgage interest rates banks are charging customers; the difference between rates charged to new and existing customers; the difference between the rates charged here and in other eurozone countries; if he has discussed this matter with the banks; the steps he is taking to bring more competition into the mortgage market, in an effort to bring down variable interest rates; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
