Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Bank Charges: Discussion with Central Bank and ISME

3:50 pm

Mr. Bernard Sheridan:

Only one other country in the world of which we are aware has a similar framework to Ireland's in terms of controlling bank charges. There are additional controls here that are not in place in most other countries. Whether that is good or bad depends very much on where one is standing.
