Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Context Phase
Mr. Marco Buti:
I am not here to name names. This is the rule in the committee.
It is clear that there was a storm of criticism in Ireland in general about the Commission finger-pointing Ireland for misbehaviour. There was clearly very strong criticism of the Commission focusing on a particularly critical issue while Ireland was doing so well. As I indicated before, this criticism was not only from Ireland, but also from academics outside Ireland.
