Moving to the lessons Ulster Bank can take from the fine, as Deputy Pearse Doherty said, it is not the only IT failure. I understand there were others seven or eight years ago when over 1,000 mortgage customers were temporarily put on interest only mortgages and not taken off that arrangement. They were then liable to paying significant amounts of money. In Mr. Brown's response to Deputy Pearse Doherty he said the IT division was located in Scotland. Is that accurate?
