As the Deputy will be aware, notwithstanding the fact that the State is a significant shareholder in AIB, the bank is run on a commercial arm's length basis and I do not have a role in the day-to-day commercial and operational decisions taken by the board and management of the bank. In relation to employment costs, the management and board of the bank are aware of their duties to their shareholders to ensure that all costs incurred by the bank are necessary and reflect the needs of the business.
