Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Role and Contribution of Public Interest Directors in Financial Institutions: Discussion
12:35 pm
Mr. Dick Spring:
Not with me, but he has had other meetings. We met the Minister for Finance. We basically wanted to find out if he wanted us to continue, as there had been a change of administration. It would have been Deputy Noonan's prerogative to request us to step down, which we would have been quite happy to do. The Minister assured us that he wanted us to continue in our roles as public interest directors, which we have done.
