Banking Inquiry Hears Evidence On Nationalisation Of Anglo

The Banking Inquiry has heard further evidence that Brian Lenihan wanted to nationalise Anglo and Irish Nationwide on the night of the guarantee.

AIB's former chairman Dermot Gleeson says Lenihan personally told him he thought the two banks shouldn't have been guaranteed.

Mr Gleeson was one of four bankers in Government Buildings on the night of the guarantee – but says he didn't have any role in the final decision.
