I am not saying the Central Bank should set them, but has it done anything about the unfairness of having consumers receiving a 0.1% deposit interest rate compared with the 3% that Irish banks are getting for their deposits with the ECB? Does Mr. Makhlouf not see that something is not regulated? Will he even go to the bother to meet the banks to see whether they would offer a better interest rate?
