Mr. Gabriel Makhlouf:

If some of the emails I received since yesterday are reflective of the wider community, the world, the world's regulators and the wider community expect us to do our job to make sure that the financial system in Ireland is resilient. They want us to make sure that financial stability is maintained and that we are not making decisions that impact on what is an integrated market in Europe, in particular the euro area. We are an important financial market in the world.

So the globe, or let me not over-exaggerate-----
