Section 105 Securitisation agreements

The Securitisation (Proceeds of Certain Mortgages) Act, 1995, was enacted in order to raise the moneys needed to pay to women the arrears owed to them arising from a High Court ruling in relation to the EU Directive dealing with equality of treatment in social security payments. The moneys were raised by securitising a portfolio of mortgages held by local authorities.

This section exempts the transfer of securities issued by the special purpose vehicle established under the Securitisation (Proceeds of Certain Mortgages) Act, 1995, from stamp duty.
