Finance Minister hears repeated calls for support from banks for defective block homeowners

Deputy Doherty says many of those affected are being forced to continue paying their mortgage while they have been left with a pile of rubble.

Minister McGrath however, did agree to meet with members of the Redress Focus Group separately to discuss banking and insurance issues:
