Kieran Wallace and Eamon Richardson of KPMG were selected for the role of Special Liquidators having regard to their previous insolvency experience and the capacity of the firm to complete the work required.

However, steps were taken to ensure that the rates agreed were commensurate with those agreed following a tender process undertaken by the National Asset Management Agency.
