I refer to the reply to Question No.1053 of the 16 September 2009. I have requested my Department to arrange to have the relevant provisions included in the first available appropriate legislative vehicle. The position remains unchanged. It is not possible to say how many existing affordable purchasers may have been considering re-mortgaging or switching to another mortgage provider.
