I propose to take Questions Nos. 166 and 167 together.
As the Deputy is aware the Board of the bank is responsible for the day to day operation of the bank, including the recovery, in normal course, of debt owed to the bank. The Board of the bank is charged with responsibility for recovering the maximum value of the bank's loan book or related security having regard to the best interests of the State and the taxpayer. IBRC has informed me that all information associated with the recovery efforts and related litigation in its dealings with the parties referred to in the Questions and associated individuals and entities are commercially sensitive.
