The European Central Bank has a democratic
duty to appear before the Banking Inquiry. That’s the view of the Fine Gael MEP
Deirdre Clune who was speaking at the European Parliament in Strasbourg. Ms
Clune is encouraging her fellow MEPs to press the ECB to participate in the
Oireachtas inquiry and to explain their role in decisions taken that impacted
on the Irish economy.

ECB President Mario Draghi to decline the invitation to go before the
Oireachtas Inquiry runs against the interests of democracy.
