Larry Butler (Fianna Fail)

I wish to raise the issue of the banks following yesterday's report by AIB. The very same bank told lies to an Oireachtas committee when it claimed it did not need our money and informed us it was able to handle its own affairs. Yesterday's report was honest in outlining a €2.5 billion loss. Its representatives could have told us that six months ago, but they preferred to bluff and tell lies to the committee.
