Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 16 July 2014
201. Deputy Stephen S. Donnelly asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if she will consider removing any upfront fees relating to personal insolvency, which, according to debtor advocate groups, are acting as an impediment to the uptake of the new insolvency legislation [31772/14]
Amharc ar fhreagraI have no immediate plans to remove upfront fees in relation to personal insolvency arrangements. However, both my Department and the Insolvency Service of Ireland (ISI) have given a commitment that the effectiveness of the personal insolvency legislation will be kept under review, this includes the fees associated with the arrangements.
