Credit Union Bill 2012: Discussion (Resumed)

11:50 am

Mr. Gerard McConville:

Generally speaking, we would agree with that. There should be no potential for a conflict of interest involving family members to arise. Many of us got our love of credit unions from other family members. It should be a generational thing. When a father retires, his son or daughter might decide to go on the board.
