Go raibh mhaith agat. Mr. Ahern, you said ... you were critical of the Financial Regulator and you also said that you'd be damned to take responsibility for something that wasn't your responsibility. And it's been put to you by Deputy Higgins that you sponsored or were aware or promoted light-touch regulation. Given that statement, how can you wash your hands of, or how can you not take responsibility for the type of regulation that was happening in the Financial Regulator's office?
