Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Fiscal Assessment Report 2014: Irish Fiscal Advisory Council

4:00 pm

Dr. Diarmaid Smyth:

On the benchmark projections that Mr. Barnes mentioned, we would have regular contact with the Commission and the IMF, in particular. We would discuss their views on the economy and give our views and talk about risks, the upside risks and the downside risks. Representatives of the Commission and the IMF are in this country twice a year and they typically would meet with us to talk about economic forecasts.
