| Mortgage Plan Not Working |
|
A government scheme designed to help homeowners who are at the risk of repossession has only helped six families. The scheme started in January and the government put £200 million aside to help individuals stay in their homes. In April the government added another £80 million to the scheme to help those suffering from negative equity however this has had little impact. The government has said that a new central team will be introduced next month which should help those at risk more quickly. |
