Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)

-----have been made in a context in which we have had to deal with actual distressed institutions. I have in no way prejudged in any statement what future policy should be in this matter. As I indicated in my reply, I am supportive of the Commission's approach. I would welcome a discussion by the Joint Committee on Finance and the Public Service and would be pleased to take its views into account when formulating a position on this issue.
