Mr. Mallon spoke of Brexit and the strategic importance of Ulster Bank within the RBS group. Can he enlighten us on the prospects of Ulster Bank operating in the Twenty-six Counties, on which there have been discussions in the past number of years? Has Brexit strengthened the position of Ulster Bank in the Twenty-six Counties, has it weakened it or has the effect been neutral?
