John McGuinness: I think it is a serious development that this is happening. I am interested to know who sets the criteria to qualify for these bonuses. I note in the report from the media that Unite is the union and it is concerned about this.

John McGuinness: It is still an extraordinary amount of money, the more I think about it and the reasons for it, given what people went through in terms of their employment and the FEMPI legislation and all of that. This is beginning to creep in at a level within the banks and NAMA that gives it the look of a cosy set of people being looked after. When people object to it or talk about it, very little...

A consultant has been or will be brought on board to define what this reward model might look like. Other people in the Central Bank are bemoaning the public pay restrictions and so on. Who is paying the consultant to do this? Why is the...
