I propose to take Questions Nos. 359 and 360 together.

A total of 103 repossessions have taken place across all local authority areas during the period 2005 to end-June 2010. This includes 40 voluntary repossessions or abandonments. The following table provides a breakdown of repossessions by each local authority for the period 2005-2009 and for January to June 2010.
