Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 September 2013
173. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Finance his views on a recent survey that two thirds of business owners believe that politicians should be kept well away from any inquiry into what went on in Irelands banking system in the run up to the economic crisis; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37303/13]
View answerAs the Deputy is aware the legislation underpinning the banking inquiry was passed on 24th July 2013. The Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform will be bringing proposals to Government shortly on the details of the inquiry. In line with the legislation it will be a matter for Oireachtas to choose which committee will conduct the inquiry and the form that inquiry will take including who will be called to give evidence.
