Michael D'Arcy (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Thank you, Chairman. Governor Honohan, I just want to read a line from Kevin Cardiff's statements. And this is in relation to leaks from early November until the actual bailout:

If it is the case that hidden sources were using leaks of inaccurate information to bounce Ireland into a bailout, then the people concerned were not just undemocratic, but antidemocratic. They ought to be asked to explain their actions but they would first have to admit them.

Was the ECB leaking against Ireland in that period prior to the bailout?
