The Corruption Thread

Class actions don’t really exist in Ireland what i mean is there is a very strict scope for them

The companies that built the houses no longer exist in the guise they previously did, at law Co’s are a separate legal person i.r you have to pursue the co. rather than the people behind it.

the people affected don’t have the standing to bring the case if that makes sense.

A bad credit rating follows you to the grave in Ireland. You wouldn’t be able to buy anywhere else.

Why?

Just a wild guess but he may need to borrow again in his lifetime you dense cunt

Correct. If the person has to fund 10% themselves and it’s the 20k, a top of mortgage should go into it. The bank defer when people have moved out. The individual is getting a rebuild of a home, the value is going to return. Best of a bad situation for the borrower and the bank.

surely the state can prosecute on their behalf?

I mean there has to be a fairly straightforward paper trail leading to the companies involved down to the money paid for each property - that money still exists in accounts, or expenses relevant to the funds exist, in the new companies. It isn’t a massive amount of houses and is certainly an achievable endeavour

The political will isn’t there to pursue it, the crooks will get away with it, the poor cunts will get stiffed and it’ll happen again.

If it can be proved that corners were cut and substandard testing of product happened pre sale then surely directors are open season?

And you think that people can just simply afford, and get approval for, a top up mortgage of 20k?

@carryharry telling lawyers about the law.

You’ve got to love TFK at times.

If they were stripped of all assets it wouldn’t account for more than about 2% of the rebuild costs.

As much as @Tim_Riggins wants to claim it isn’t relevant, he is detached from the reality of life for the vast majority of people in the country and it has a huge bearing on his arguments and viewpoints

i am not aware of any mechanism where the state could stand in the shoes of the affected, that is why redress is being offered.

The money has long been laundered, the houses were all completed approx 10-15 years ago ( open to correction on that).

The political will doesnt appear to be there, has it ever with regard to anything in the north west?

Look again minnie

Amended post…

I can’t specifically speak to the North West but the political will has never really been there to hold anyone accountable

I mean the state paid for the compensation for the mothers and daughters and all the abuse of the Catholic Church over the years instead of holding those paedophile monsters accountable and seizing every asset belonging to them in the country

this is the thing thought.

Developer buys from block maker. Rship. dev could sue BM

Affected buys from developer. rship Aff could sue Dev

Affected and block maker: no rship cant sue

Developer co. wound up and doesnt want to get involved.

He’ll be getting the guts of a 350k house for free, might leave some room for disposable income, you tit
