No Consent, No Sale Bill 2019: Discussion (2 Apr 2019) Kieran O'Donnell: The Central Bank and the Department of Finance are independently opposed to the Bill. I want to be devil's advocate and flesh out how the Bill would not be of benefit to borrowers in difficulty with the banks. Would it not give them more rights in terms of their loans?

No Consent, No Sale Bill 2019: Discussion (2 Apr 2019) Kieran O'Donnell: I am zoning down on one specific question. Let us say someone was with AIB yesterday and his or her loan is sold on to a fund.
