40. Deputy Billy Kelleher asked the Minister for Finance the powers he has delegated to the Ministers of State in his Department; the date on which such delegation was made; if there were changes in powers delegated relative to the situation in place prior to 14 June 2017; if so, the details of same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42780/17]
View answerAs I indicated in my response to Parliamentary Question No. 84 of 27 September 2017, there are two Ministers of State appointed to the Department of Finance:
- Deputy Michael D'Arcy is Minister of State at the Department of Finance and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform with special responsibility for Financial Services and Insurance; and
- Deputy Patrick O’Donovan is Minister of State at the Department of Finance and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform with special responsibility for Public Procurement, Open Government and eGovernment.
No formal Delegation of Ministerial Functions Orders have been signed. This position is kept under review in light of the requirements of the respective roles. There were no changes in powers delegated on or after 14 June 2017.
