Pearse Doherty: Ba mhaith liom fáilte a chur roimh an mBille seo. Nuair a chuala mé aréir go raibh an Rialtas ag tabhairt tacaíochta don Bhille, bhí mé an-sásta, ach tar éis a bheith ag éisteacht leis an méid a bhí le rá ag cuid de chomhghleacaithe an Aire Stáit as Páirtí Fhine Gael, tá sé iontach soiléir nach bhfuil...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process: (Resumed) Permanent TSB and AIB (9 Apr 2014)
Pearse Doherty: I welcome Mr. Masding and his colleagues to the committee. I also welcome the fact they have attracted new deposits to the bank while reducing some of the ratios bearing down on it. They have a difficult job which is not made any easier by the fact the bank still seems to be in limbo, not knowing which way it will end up. There has been much speculation about mergers with Ulster Bank and...

Pearse Doherty: I asked about the definition of vulnerable cases and how the bank deals with them. The point I am making is that not everyone in such circumstances has access to their Deputy who can bring this to the bank’s attention. Therefore, through that process, we can get to a resolution. However, when these people engaged with the bank, the sustainable solution they were offered was...

Pearse Doherty: In regard to court proceedings, we saw from the figures presented by the financial institutions that Permanent TSB was probably the bank that used legal proceedings least. Half of some of the other banks' proposals involved legal proceedings or assisted voluntary sales. These figures referred to quarter four. However, Permanent TSB has now provided us with the figures for quarter one of...
