Credit Institutions (Financial Support) Bill 2008: Second Stage
4:00 pm
Ann Ormonde (Fianna Fail)
At the moment, the trust is gone. I grew up in a town where banks were highly respected. I want that respect restored, and I want the Minister to ensure that regulatory standards will be applied to lending practices to protect the taxpayer. Confidence is down at the moment. All I ask the Minister is that he continue the scrutiny that is necessary at this time.
