Pearse Doherty
Question:187. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Finance further to Parliamentary Question No. 105 of 21 May 2013, the reason he cannot state that the Central Bank of Ireland is outsourcing the running of its security functions to a private company when any new arrangement regarding the outsourcing, specifically the financial contract with the company, will in all likelihood be included in the CBoI's annual accounts next year; and if he will explain the way in which stating that the CBoI has a new company in charge of its security operations could possibly remain confidential information and the way the disclosure of that news could in anyway impinge upon security at the bank; if he will state his views given the highly sensitive approach being taken to security at the CBoI and the way in which decision to outsource a potentially security threat to the bank's IT is not a cause of concern for him.
