In mid-October when I announced that I had asked my Department to finalise arrangements and terms of reference for the establishment of a Resolution Board I also indicated that I was writing to the stakeholders to give them one final opportunity to engage constructively with me in putting in place a remediation programme and to contribute to its cost. I wrote to the Construction Industry Federation, the Irish Concrete Federation, HomeBond, the Irish Insurance Federation and the Irish Banking Federation enclosing illustrative terms of reference for the proposed Resolution Board and set a deadline of 9 November for them to advise me of their responses. In addition, my Department has met with a number of the stakeholders over the past two weeks and further meetings are scheduled for this week. I have received written and oral responses to my letters of 31 October which I will consider in conjunction with the outcome of the discussions now taking place. It is my intention that final decisions in relation to the proposed Resolution Board and its funding will be made very shortly.
