There is a question to which I am leading and it is obvious. The Department is looking at the corporate issue and I am purely fleshing it out. Looking at it from the public's viewpoint, the Department had someone who headed up a division that dealt with shareholders within the banks, one of them being Bank of Ireland, who is now joining Bank of Ireland. Will he be in a position to represent the bank in dealing with the Department as gamekeeper turned poacher? Will the procedures allow that to happen?
