Mr. Lar Bradshaw:

Let me make it clear. I opened the meeting by saying that we found out some information the previous night from Bernard McNamara, which was that Anglo Irish Bank and Bank of Ireland were in the frame. That created a situation for three members of the authority. We discussed that issue. We were not going to discuss funding or financing at that meeting. There was only one item on the agenda, whether we were happy with the figure of €375 million that we had agreed. We discussed whether it was appropriate or not for us to stay in the room for that discussion.
