I welcome the witnesses and congratulate Mr. Hogan on his appointment. In fact, I am not sure whether congratulations are in order but we will see as time goes on.
I have a number of quick-fire questions. The first relates to the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman, which I know is an independent office. I have been in receipt of some complaints in regard to the performance of the ombudsman and the length of time it takes to get a response from the office. Is Mr. Hogan aware of these issues? What oversight does he perform in terms of the ombudsman's role?
