456. Deputy Ged Nash asked the Minister for Finance if a copy will be provided of the briefing notes prepared for Central Bank officials in preparation for their recent Oireachtas Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach session; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14539/21]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware material prepared for Central Bank officials in preparation for their appearance at Oireachtas Committees or any other events are an internal matter for the Bank.
The Central Bank is independent in the performance of its functions and this independence is enshrined in the Treaties of the European Union and in the Statute of the European System of Central Banks.
The Deputy may wish to consider submitting a request for the information to the Bank under the Freedom of Information Act 2014.
