Professor Philip Lane:

I will make one point and ask Ms Rowland to follow up. There are appeals systems within the banks before one gets to the ombudsman or the courts. It is interesting that while the number of people taking appeals has been limited so far, a fair number have been accepted. That is why the Central Bank is happy this appeals system was set up. Typically, when an appeal is successful, it is because of something specific to the family in question. There is some particular reason the family has suffered extra harm because of its individual circumstances. The independent appeals mechanism within each bank is delivering for those individuals who have particular circumstances. That does not rule out an individual or family wanting to go to the ombudsman or the courts. I will ask Ms Rowland to respond on that.
