Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

The Chair would be right to do so; I am as useful outside the House as in it because I cannot get any answers here.

First, yesterday, the Financial Services Ombudsman indicated that the Department of Finance was supportive of his request to name financial institutions which abuse their customers and fail to give them their proper rights. That does not appear to be on the Government's list of legislative commitments and I would like the Tánaiste to indicate whether it will be introduced.

Second, on the National Asset Management Agency, when will the Dáil see the codes of practice it was due to publish by 31 March and the quarterly report due on 31 March also? Those documents should be laid before the House and I would like to know when we will see them. They are now months overdue.
