Quote:

Disgraced former Anglo Irish Bank chairman Sean FitzPatrick is expected to face questioning in public about his actions next month, the Irish Independent has learned.
Mr FitzPatrick will be the first of three former Anglo executives to face public disciplinary tribunals being mounted by the Chartered Accountants Regulatory Board (CARB).
The accountancy watchdog is to announce details of the hearing schedule next week, but it is widely expected hearings into complaints against Mr FitzPatrick's will commence during April.
Further public hearings into the conduct of former Anglo chief executive David Drumm and the bank's former finance director Willie McAteer will only take place after Mr FitzPatrick's case has concluded.

Made it as far as CARB and then stopped reading.
Insiders questioning insiders.
Who are the member of that regulatory board?
And should they really be asking the questions, or shouldn't they be lining up for interrogation alongside Seanie too?

What are the chances of him attending these hearings?
And what are the consequences for him if he doesn't?

The most they can do is revoke his membership - which would actually save him c. €550 pa (assuming he's not on a reduced rate for retirees etc.)

At least they haven't given him honorary life membership like they did for Haughey.

If Seanie is bankrupt how can he afford to be playing on a posh golf course?

Was there some sort of "see how the other half live" motivational course being run or something.

Borrowed assets, someone else's largesse and a handy stock of golf balls?

Oh shit!

Dump your shares in any golf club now - Seánnie up to his old tricks again!

Why do I keep reading 'public' as 'pubic'?

Because you have a keen sense of natural justice?

What point? It's certainly awful, but I for one don't see any point. I'd be more than happy to see Seanie Fitz in jail, but to be honest I'd be the one going to jail if I was on the scene for that stupid pointless line of populist haranguing ... for wrapping a 3 wood around the journalist's face. Why isn't he haranguing the cops and the DPP about foot dragging over bringing indictments instead of trying Seanie himself on the golf course? I wince everytime I hear a journo trying to elicit such a "sorry" ... who the hell appointed them as high priests?
