Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion

Mr. Nick Ashmore:

To be very clear, the decision-making around the ISIF and its investments sits with the National Treasury Management Agency board and its investment subcommittee on a statutory basis. Investment decisions and setting an investment strategy is conducted on an independent basis. The Minister does not have the vires to direct us outside of the directed portfolio, which contains the banks. That is just to be very clear on that.
