I would not expect Mr. Roebben to know all about the eviction that took place in Strokestown in Roscommon, which happened down the road from me but would he accept that KBC nationally has lost face over the way that was handled?

As the Deputy noted, I cannot comment on specific cases, particularly when legal proceedings are ongoing. In this case I believe criminal legal proceedings are also involved. We have a very rigorous process when we go into legal cases. It is the last step in a very long process if nothing else works and no dialogue is ongoing. We adhere scrupulously to all legal rules, policies and legislation in such a case. That is our approach in every single case.
