I welcome Mr. Buti. This is an inquiry into the banking crisis which cost the State approximately €64 billion. When the European Commission examined Ireland's stability programme update reports from 2001 to 2007, it made no reference whatsoever to our banking sector and the risks being built up within it. Will Mr. Buti explain why this is the case?
