421. To ask the Minister for Social Protection the reason mortgage interest relief has been reduced or terminated in the case of persons (details supplied) in County Kildare; if the decision in this case is in accord with general policy in that, if pursued nationally will lead to large scale home repossessions; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Following a review, the client was requested, in line with Departmental guidelines, to contact her mortgage provider with a view to restructuring her loan and to inform the Department of the outcome. In addition, following an earlier parliamentary question on this matter, an officer of the Department contacted the client to offer assistance and again requested certain documents to be forwarded to the Department. There is no record in the Department of any communication from the client to date.
