I agree with the previous speakers that the proposed loan sale by the bank is a disgrace. It involves 20,000 mortgage holders, people's family homes. We are talking of vulture funds buying those loans when we have a housing crisis, people are homeless and we are trying to make sure families stay in their homes. This proposed selling off of those loans cannot happen. It is a scandal. I will fully support making the case to the Minister that it does not happen. He needs to come into the House to talk to us about this.

The other issue I wish to raise is a local one. We have a major health sector problem as industrial action is currently being taken by psychiatric nurses in St. Luke's Hospital-----
