Sir, – “Bank bosses must be held to account” (Editorial, September 30th).
That’ll be the day! – Yours, etc,

An Irish businessman in Singapore: ‘You’ll get a year in jail if you are in a drunken brawl, so people don’t step out of line’
Protestants in Ireland: ‘We’ve gone after the young generations. We’ve listened and changed how we do things’
Is this the final chapter for Books at One as Dublin and Cork shops close?
In Dallas, X marks the mundane spot that became an inflection point of US history
Co Cork.
Sir, – Your editorial tells us that bank bosses must be held to account. If we are going to follow past punishments given to reckless bank bosses, they will only go on to be rewarded by outside appointments to more lucrative positions. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – A spokesperson for the Irish Banking Culture Board (IBCB) acknowledged recently that efforts being made to improve banking culture were yet to resonate with the public.
This is most unfortunate.
I suggest in response that we the public must do more to change our attitude so the IBCB can happily fold its tent and disappear back down the fantasy rabbit hole this bizarre quango popped out of. – Yours, etc,
