Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Nexus Phase
Mr. Robert Gallagher:
So, I had no knowledge of the guarantee or the conversations of the guarantee prior to the public announcement of the guarantee on the 29th or 30th. I did, along with Mr. McCarthy, meet the Minister for Finance on the 30th in the morning, where he was attending a business launch which we were having in George's Quay in Dublin and at that meeting, we indicated our concern about the impact of the guarantee to Ulster Bank and the outflow of deposits. And post that date and for broadly speaking a month afterwards, we saw a material outflow of deposits.
