Mr. Jim Brown:
There is an issue around the culture of individual traders with RBS. As I said, these are not issues we have experienced in Ulster Bank.
On what happened through the boom period, there is no doubt that Ulster Bank lent in ways it should not have done. As a consequence, we have paid a significant price, namely, £15 billion.
