It's a public service. There is no rationale to the government's response to the 'naming' issue. At least no rationale other than it is not politically expedient for them to do so. We own the bank, and it is worthless. Are they telling us that the owners or a bank have no right, or duty to know who owes it significant amounts of money? When there was a shareholders' meeting were there not cameras in the room? Was that 'prejudicial', or contrary to the banking regulations? Anyone holding public office should be statute-barred from having un-minuted, unofficial, private meetings with private institutions or shareholders who stand to gain from influencing legislative or regulatory functions.

Why not just publicise the share register details, perhaps in order of transaction value? Of course, I'm not suggesting that the ten buyers of these shares would be the 10 members of the Golden Circle that we want to know, but some people might leap to that conclusion. Perhaps there is someone out here who could clarify how much of the Share Register is in the public domain?
