Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Debt Write-down and Debt Resolution Policies: Allied Irish Banks

Mr. Jim O'Keeffe:

Of course the bank has calculated the details that sit behind all of these numbers. In fairness, we only released the 1,900 detail to this committee as of Tuesday evening. As part of that, we feel that we complied with the request of the committee in sharing that information and we were not asked for the financial number that sits alongside it. As I said to the other two Deputies, there is a commercial sensitivity around it that I need to take consideration on before I can share the number with the committee. Again, I do not believe that such a situation takes us away from the key point that we should be still able to give the committee absolute assurance that there is a consistency in terms of how these loans are dealt with across the board.
