View answerAs Minister for Finance I have not had any recent meetings with Prime Minister Cameron. I had a bilateral meeting with my UK counterpart, the Chancellor, George Osborne, on 14 December 2011 where a number of issues were discussed, including banking regulation. I have regular contact with the Chancellor through ECOFIN meetings. I also met Lord Turner, who is the Chair of the UK Financial Services Authority, on 27 April 2012.
