That is fair enough. This is not directed at Mr. Byrne or his bank. However, I am not sure why people are surprised when it comes to continuing tax evasion and tax avoidance as it pertains to certain financial institutions. We need to go back and take a look at the laws which govern this area. Certainly, when it comes to the Revenue Commissioners, they are still of the opinion that the laws are not sufficient when it comes to governing the entire area.
