Vol. 160 No. 16

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Directors of Central Bank.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will state the names of the present directors of the Central Bank, the period for which they have been appointed, and the date on which their appointments will terminate.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated in the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—
