The Deputy will be aware that under the Relationship Framework the Board of the bank is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the bank. The bank has retained the services of the 'strategic advisory arm' of the Group, referred to in the question. The bank has previously been requested by my Department to confirm that there is no conflict in relation to the appointment. The Deputy will appreciate that details of the terms and purpose of the bank's appointment of this advisor are commercially sensitive and it is not appropriate to disclose such information.
