Paul Murphy: I have a problem with the decision some of the shareholders are making. To turn to the arrears figures, by my calculations, if one adds together the SME corporate loans arrears, the mortgages in arrears and the property and construction loans in arrears, the bank has €16.4 billion in arrears out of a total of €83.3 billion, which is very close to 20%.
