Mr. John Moran:

I would like to mention one point, which is that from the very beginning of the process, since 2011, we have made it very clear to people that if they are interested in serving on the boards of the banks, and interested in serving other issues, and they have the skill-sets, we are interested in engaging in picking the best people for those roles. However, we have moved into a scenario where we are not flooded with all of these people who Deputy Ross seems to believe are out there, who have these very competent CVs and who are willing to work in various institutions across Ireland. There are some but I think the Deputy would perhaps like to create an impression that we are operating in a very small pool in some way on purpose. That is not the case. We have again gone through a very exhaustive search in respect of AIB, where we need to find a chairman for that institution, and that is coming to a conclusion. The Deputy will probably like to describe the situation somewhat similarly again into the future.
