I thank the Governor for his time today. I begin by referring to the judgment yesterday in the Anglo Irish Bank case. I understand there are constraints in what we can say, but not in respect of the particular point I wish to make. Judge Nolan said in court yesterday, "It would be most unjust to jail these two men when I feel that a State agency had led the two men into error and illegality." The most important words here are "led the two men into error and illegality". This is a very serious finding and I am sure the Governor is examining it with great interest. Now that we have a judgment saying that the Central Bank led two people to break the law, is it not time to call in An Garda Síochána and have a criminal investigation?
