Jim O'Callaghan: Why has the regulator not sought to agree on the implementation plan and have a collaborative approach among people such as the witnesses and the banks?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Withdrawal from Irish Banking Market (Resumed): Engagement with Financial Services Union and Electric Ireland (25 May 2022)

Jim O'Callaghan: Sometimes politicians who are members of this committee and other Members of the Houses are criticised when they emphasise that customers want to have face-to-face contact with bankers, and we are presented as being a bit old-fashioned because this is not the format according to which banking will operate in the future. Does Mr. O'Connell share our concern that there will be a requirement...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Withdrawal from Irish Banking Market (Resumed): Engagement with Financial Services Union and Electric Ireland (25 May 2022)

Jim O'Callaghan: I agree with Mr. O'Connell. The only entity that can change that is the regulator. If banks are not prohibited from trying to corral people into online banking, they will keep doing it and use whatever mechanism they have to achieve it. Does the regulator not have a role to ensure a requirement that a certain percentage of staff be available to provide face-to-face contact with customers?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Future Funding of Higher Education: Discussion (Resumed) (24 May 2022)

Jim O'Callaghan: I thank the witnesses for coming in this morning and for their submissions to the committee. I would like to say first to Mr. Hourihan that the committee visited the Bishopstown campus in MTU. The modern part was very impressive. Then we went to look at where the apprentices are being trained. The building seemed to be very old. It was probably unsuitable. Is that what Mr. Hourihan is...

Jim O'Callaghan: There seems to be much co-operation between what was required in the private sector and the apprenticeships that were being taught there. I think this is particularly the case for medical devices. While there was some highly impressive machinery there, it looked completely out of place with the old building. Could Mr. Hourihan remark on that?

Does Mr. English believe it is important? Is it encouraging and improving the quality of apprenticeships for people to participate in very competitive arrangements like that?
