Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Nexus Phase
Mr. Brian Cowen:
Well, the decision was made ... yes, I mean, it was made ... it was discussed beforehand and I think what happened was that late at night when, maybe, Brian had gone home, as he says, in order ... because he'd an early start the next morning, a clarification may have come into the room saying ... that dated subordinated bondholders, they're included, and I discussed it further with the Governor at that point and that's the recollection of the conversation I've just given to you. So it was included, on that basis.
