I propose to take Questions Nos. 106 and 107 together.

As the Deputy will be aware, the previous Government placed restrictions on various types of remuneration in the Irish banks that were recapitalised by the State and these restrictions remain in place.

Hence there cannot be any bonus, dividend or incentive payments for AIB’s executives or staff linked to the IPO of AIB.
