Minister for Finance

As the Deputy will be aware this matter is the subject of ongoing legal action. As such it would not be appropriate for the Minister or my department to comment.

My officials recieved the following response from the Central Bank of Ireland in regard to your query: "Any information received has been thoroughly considered in the context of our overall supervision of EBS DAC. Due to confidentiality requirements we are not in a position to make any further comment."
