Boyle: Financial Regulator's golden handshake unacceptable

A “staggeringly generous” €630,000 euro golden handshake for the former Financial Regulator Patrick Neary is unacceptable, a Government Senator said today.

Green Party chairman Dan Boyle was the first Oireachtas member to call for the resignation of Mr Neary after it emerged the watchdog should have known about secret multi-million euro loans at Anglo Irish Bank.
