Mr. Larry Broderick:

We have raised this with all banks. The have told us that, as and from now, all staff will be included in the redress programme. This is reassuring. Our concern, however, is that we need to be reassured this is the case because bank staff are no different from anybody else. They, too, are customers and have the same problems and issues as any other customer. There was some doubt, which we have raised. We are putting it on the record today just to make sure it will be the case that bank staff will not be treated any differently from other customers.
