John McGuinness: I am sorry for interrupting. Mr. Mallon knows this but he is talking back to me as if this was the first time he has heard it. He talks about being transparent and all the rest of it. I asked what Mr. Mallon will do to address the information deficit regarding the bank's front line and the help line. Second, I asked him about that particular case, of which there are many others - I have...

John McGuinness: When Mr. Mallon's bank suffered, and I will come back to Deputy McGrath again and other members if they want to put questions, the bank took immediate aggressive action against those in the small and medium business sector by dumping them but when he is asked to save a family in distress, with special needs children whose lives are being affected, he cannot even answer "Yes". When I asked...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Banking Sector in Ireland (Resumed): Permanent TSB and KBC Bank (28 Sep 2017)
John McGuinness: Mr. Masding, I have a question about the data you have on each customer relating to their accounts. Where is the information gap or where do you not have the letters and correspondence? Is there an issue from 2008 onwards with a number of customers or with only one customer?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Banking Sector in Ireland (Resumed): Permanent TSB and KBC Bank (28 Sep 2017)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Banking Sector in Ireland (Resumed): Permanent TSB and KBC Bank (28 Sep 2017)
John McGuinness: In the application to the bank for information, the bank was unable to provide three vital documents. How do you know there is not more there?

For how many years do is there a gap in the bank's data from 2008?

John McGuinness: Mr. Groarke should be, given the amount of correspondence the bank has received. However, I am not raising an individual case. It arises from the question Deputy Sherlock asked. The bank has an information gap somewhere and that information gap affects its customers. At present, it appears to be one, according to Deputy Sherlock. If others applied for their data from the bank, would they...
