Taoiseach: FF 'hypocritical to say the least' on insolvency issue

Taoiseach Enda Kenny launched an attack on Fianna Fáil today after the party proposed taking the power away from banks in insolvency arrangements.

Fianna Fáil today proposed the establishment of an "independent mortgage resolution office" within the Personal Insolvency Service which can apply a series of measures including permanent interest rate reductions, longer payment terms or, in some limited circumstances, debt write downs.
