I reiterate my call to the Leader for a debate as soon as possible on homelessness.

I also call on the Leader to provide for a debate on home repossessions. A recent Department of Justice and Equality expert group report on repossessions has advocated improving the structure to make it easier to secure repossessions of homes. I have sincere reservations about how repossessions are conducted, who determines whether a mortgage is unsustainable and who is acting as judge and jury on repossessions. I ask that we would have a debate on repossessions with the Minister for Finance and another debate with the Minister for Justice and Equality on the operation of the insolvency service. It is time to review the operation of the service at this stage.
