The jury has completed its first full day of deliberations in the trial of three former Anglo Irish Bank executives.

Willie McAteer, Pat Whelan and Sean FitzPatrick are accused of providing unlawful financial assistance for the purchase of the bank's own shares in July 2008.

The jury has now spent about six hours deliberating.

This evening they requested transcripts of the evidence given by the former Chief Financial Officer of Anglo Matt Moran, and the bank's former head of Compliance Fiachre O'Neill.

Both men were granted immunity from prosecution.

Judge Martin Nolan has sent the jury home for the night. He will address their request for transcripts tomorrow morning when they resume their task.

Earlier, the jury requested a copy of the loan pack Anglo Irish Bank issued to Patricia Quinn - the wife of Cavan businessman Sean Quinn - back in 2008.

The court has heard she and her five adult children borrowed around €160 million from Anglo to buy shares in the bank as a part of a scheme to dilute her husband's 29% stake in the bank.

Another €450 million was lent to the so-called Maple Ten investors, also for the purpose of buying Anglo shares.

In total the jury have 42 charges to consider. The jury is under instruction to put aside any prejudices they may have about bankers as their deliberations got underway.

The 12 men and women were out for less than an hour on Friday so today was their first full day reviewing the evidence.

During the last 10 weeks, they heard over €600 million was lent by Anglo to the Maple Ten and the family of Sean Quinn to buy the bank's shares.

Judge Martin Nolan told the jury in order to convict they must be satisfied this lending was not in the ordinary course of the bank's business, that the accused knew about it and did not stop it.
