Mr. Dermot Gleeson:

Well, I was unsure, in my own mind, whether I should put this into my evidence at all, because in a sense, he was speaking to me in confidence and I've never told anyone, but it was on foot of Governor Honohan saying that that was a thing. It seemed to me that it would be unfair of me not to record that evidence, it having, as it were, gone public in some degree, and so I've made that decision, but I believe the Minister was speaking to me privately, as it were at the time.
