Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Strategy Statement 2011-2014 and IFSC Clearing House Group: Discussion with Department of the Taoiseach
3:20 pm
Mr. Martin Fraser:
I am sure there are written reports. I will clarify that. I cannot know something that I do not know, so I will have to find out. The subgroups deal with individual sectors. I am sure they are going through the stuff on those issues too but, as I said to Deputy Humphreys, I will come back to Deputy Boyd Barrett on what matters are discussed.
The industry view on all these matters is clear and Deputy Boyd Barrett can see that in the minutes. There are not long conversations about these things. I will come back to Deputy Boyd Barrett on the subgroups but the Government policy is clear as well. I appreciate that the Deputy does not agree with the Government's policy but my job is to implement the Government policy.
