A lot of people will be shocked at how threadbare the level of resources are within the Department of Finance. Mr. Moran said that everyone in the Department is making a contribution but they were all busy people before the Brexit referendum result last June. Almost seven months on from that, there are only four people in the Department of Finance with responsibility for devising our economic policy.

The world has changed for Ireland.
