The Taoiseach:
I would prefer to have a broader read of not just the article but the full background with regard to comparisons between the UK and our market. The Minister for Finance obviously deals regularly, via the Central Bank, with the commercial banks. That is an issue that will be examined by the Government, but again I have not seen the article.
