Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Context Phase

Mr. John Moran:

It was primarily led by the banks and developers themselves saying they would not pay a percentage and that they wanted to know exactly what they were paying us for. The professional bodies, I think, were happy enough with it because it meant there was absolutely no risk of somebody trying to increase the value to increase the fee, so it suited from everybody’s perspective.
