In spring 2009 I informed the House of the situation of a young man who had become unemployed due to the closure of a local building firm. Two years prior to 2009, he had purchased a new truck to carry out his business. The truck cost him in excess of ¤120,000 and he signed a contract with a finance agency in the car park of a public house. He made his payments and paid back every penny up until he was laid off, when the balance remaining was ¤60,000. He was negotiating payment with the financial institution but while he was away on a medical appointment, thugs from the financial institution arrived at his mother's house and intimidated her into giving them the keys of the lorry. They stole it from him. I have pursued that case for that man since that day,
