The Oireachtas Finance Committee is to request senior management from AIB to appear before it to answer questions about the bank's policy on debt write-downs
The committee met this afternoon to discuss the matter and TDs and Senators are keen to have the issue addressed quickly.
The Finance Committee wants to know how many debts were written down by more than 90% during the last decade. The Finance Committee has a full schedule for the next three weeks but some members want to organise an extra meeting next week to deal with matter. "It is just really difficult for so many people to see what appears to be two cohorts of individuals being treated differently," he said.
