I look forward to quoting that next year, when I hope Mr. Duffy will have been proved right and I will have been proved wrong.

With regard to Priory Hall, I reiterate that so many families are clinging to every word that is being said by people in the banks, so I will give the witnesses the opportunity to say what they want to about Priory Hall as carefully as they can. When the residents hear about "new homes" or a "final solution", they want to know what the terms mean.

We all know how difficult the position is and I agree with others that there are a number of other issues coming down the tracks for this and other banks because of the mad sellotape-type construction of the past 15 years. The period of "a number of weeks" has been mentioned, along with "positive solutions" and "new homes". These words will be pored over, read and clung to by people in a desperate position, so I would give two minutes to the witnesses to allow them say what they want. That would be very much appreciated by everybody.
