I welcome the master to the committee. I appreciate his opening remarks. I want to pick up on his last point. Surely judges should know what the law is themselves. Why is it up to Oireachtas Members to tell judges what the law is, whether domestic or EU law?

Does Mr. Honohan believe there is an issue here? Are those who advocate on behalf of borrowers not outlining this to judges before the courts, or is there a view that judges are dismissing this issue?
