Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Context Phase
Mr. Ed Mulhall:
My answer to that would be "Yes". There were two "Prime Time Investigates" programmes specifically dealing with the issue of planning. I will pass on the dates for those programmes to the committee. There was also a "Prime Time Investigates" investigation into housing agents and one on mortgage products arising out of the sub-prime issue. There were two big investigations, one early in the "Prime Time Investigates" series and one subsequently. In the period immediately after the crash, there was one specifically on building, builders and speculation, as well as one on the banks. There were a number of specific programmes and the ones to which I am referring were fully fledged "Prime Time Investigates" type programmes.
