Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Access to Credit Provision: Discussion with Credit Review Office

3:05 pm

Mr. John Trethowan:

As I am appointed to look at individual cases that is all I can actually do. We have called in much structural stuff from the empiric evidence we get from the cases. We started with the formal internal appeals process in the banks before we started; that was not in place before we came along. We have had a need for training frontline staff and the banks have invested in that.
