Richard Boyd Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, People Before Profit Alliance)

Was it at this meeting that the Taoiseach gave the banks the veto? Why did he not tell them that the Government was going to tell the banks what to do and that it was going to impose fair debt settlement arrangements because the Government is now the boss of the banks and, having recapitalised them, they should serve the people rather than their own interests? Why did the Taoiseach not do so? Why did he allow the banks to have a veto? Did the banks tell the Taoiseach that at the meeting?
