RTE Primetime last night (29/01/2009) stated in its report on Anglo Irish bank that Six individuals owe the bank something like €800m. (IIRC) I'm not sure whether they meant €800m each - which would be a staggering €4.8bn - or between them. Now that we, the state, own the bank, should we be entitled to know:
a) Who they are
b) How much they owe
c) Terms & conditions of those loans (incl. whether interest is being charged/rolled up)
d) Current payments being made by these individuals
I appreciate that there are likely privacy issues with a) & b), however we are in extraordinary times. I am sure that the many hundreds of thousands of people facing redundancy or pay cuts would like to know the names of those people whose debts our money - literally - will be used to pay off.
