- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Banking Sector in Ireland (Resumed): Bank of Ireland (5 Jul 2018)
Kieran O'Donnell: One of my concerns is that the mainstream banks are effectively, for want of another term, leaving the building of housing units to the funds. That is unhealthy. I would like to see the banks getting more involved. Bank of Ireland's funding of 3,000 units today is not good enough. Ms McDonagh referred to how house prices were well off the peak, but when they peaked, they were way above...

Kieran O'Donnell: I have a limited amount of time. We asked the bank to provide details of its proposals on pay and bonuses.

Why is that being proposed at this time?

Kieran O'Donnell: Does the bank intend to sell loans to funds to achieve that target and over what timescale will that happen? What impact would that have on home and commercial mortgages? Regarding Bank of Ireland's commitment to its branch network, many of its branches have virtually become fully automated. We had a branch-----

Kieran O'Donnell: I welcome Mr. O'Flynn, Ms Queally-Moloney, Mr. Ryan and everyone else. I just have a couple of questions. Apart from anything else, the witnesses have obviously made study of the promissory note. They have probably studied it more than anyone. Did the design of the promissory note come from the Government of the day or did it come from Europe? Did Mr. O'Flynn examine from where it emanated?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Sale of Promissory Note Bonds: Discussion (28 Jun 2018)
Kieran O'Donnell: I have two very quick questions following on from that. Was the restructuring of the promissory note just as important as the promissory note? Prior to the restructuring of the promissory note, the State paid €3.1 billion in 2011, which came out of current spending and had a drastic effect on the resources available. I know that there is interest on the moneys being borrowed but did...
