The witnesses' bank, albeit not the gentlemen who are present in particular, has caused an incredible amount of pain to this country and to people living in this country, as have other banks. This era in our history will be spoken of for ten, 20, 30,100 or 200 years to come. I refer to the former site of the Irish Parliament at College Green, which is currently in the bank's hands. Given recent events within Bank of Ireland, do the witnesses not think it would be a reasonable suggestion for the bank to do what the Government has suggested should be done and as a gesture to the Irish people, give that site back to them?
