Credit Union Restructuring Board (Dissolution) Bill 2019: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2020-11-24
============================================================

Sean Fleming (FF), Laois-Offaly

I am nudging them into mortgage lending. It is the main message I have for credit unions. They should start giving mortgages to people, as those people would be happier taking a mortgage from a credit union than a bank which could sell the loan to an international vulture fund. I have never heard of a credit union doing that.
I thank Senators for their input and I look forward to progressing the legislation through the remaining Stages in the Seanad.
