Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Statement of Strategy 2017: Department of Finance

Mr. Derek Moran:
The assistant secretary is the head of the unit and a former diplomat. The principal officer is a long-term EU expert who has worked on EU budgetary matters and was previously in the representations in Brussels. The assistant principal was on his way back from Brussels to work for Mr. McCarthy and we diverted him from the economic unit into this unit. We will want to get a legal person because a lot of the negotiation will be around legal texts.
