My question focuses on accountability. How will we hold individuals, rather that those at an institutional level, who were involved in a major and widescale theft of people's money to account? Up to 15,000 individuals over a number of years were affected. The amount of money that would have been at risk is close to, if not in excess of €500 million, if customers had not identified the issue and proceeded with cases to the Financial Services Ombudsman and others. What steps will the Oireachtas take to ensure that there is individual accountability for those involved in this practice in financial institutions?
