3 4 MR. QUINN: Good afternoon, Sir. Mr. John - The Tribunal of ...

1414:36:151 Q. 79 Well if we look at for example 10135, which is a memo prepared by Mr. O'Farrell2 on a meeting on the 16th of September '93, do you see that memo on screen?3 A. Yes, I do.4 Q. 80 That's a memo prepared by Mr. O'Farrell arising out of a lunch he had with you14:36:335 where you brought him up-to-date with a number of issues?6 A. Yes.7 Q. 81 Mr. O'Farrell was prepared to prepare a two-page memo arising out of a luncheon8 with you?9 A. Yes.14:36:4210 Q. 82 Mr. Deane, isn't that correct?11 A. That's correct.12 Q. 83 Are you surprised that the bank don't have a more detailed memo of the meeting13 with Mr. O'Callaghan in July '93, if they have a two-page memo on a luncheon14 meeting with you?14:37:0015 A. I'm not because I wasn't at the meeting so I don't know what was discussed.16 But I know to this day we meet the bank senior people at least, probably once a17 year for a social get together and I would be astounded if there was a detailed18 note of that even though we would be with them for three or four hours of an19 evening. I don't know but I just think if you take over the last few years we14:37:2420 have met them regularly senior people within the bank on sort of almost an21 annual basis. Again, there would have been no reason to keep a note even22 though a lot of things would be discussed.23 Q. 84 And in that meeting I think you covered such issues as Barkhill and you advised24 the bank that Mr. O'Callaghan was keeping close touch with the councillors and14:37:4425 you remained very confident that there would be no problem in relation to the26 upcoming confirmation of the rezoning, isn't that the position?27 A. Yes, it had gone through the zoning vote in 1992. There was a meeting I think28 as you said in June '93 and there was a question of getting, this time I think29 it was just to get the full Development Plan passed. I think Quarryvale had14:38:0630 more or less been resolved in June and this was the formal passing of thePremier Captioning & Realtime Limitedwww.pcr.ie Day 881
