Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Nexus Phase
Mr. John Hurley:
There would have been a discussion when we met some of the major banks about the potential for their assisting smaller banks that came in to difficulty. That would have happened and you ... you would expect in a banking system that if a small bank was in difficulty, that the first port of call would be the main banks because private sector solutions would be the main vehicle at that stage. So that would have been put in discussions, I think it would have been put by me in discussions to the pillar banks.
