Public Accounts Committee

Credit Union Fund Accounts 2013; Credit Resolution Institution Fund Accounts 2013; and Credit Union Restructuring Board Accounts 2013

Mr. Patrick Casey:

We are open to reviewing a formal application from any individual who chooses to submit one but we have not received any formal application. There had been some discussion about the restoration of credit union services in Newbridge and we are very much in favour of a new credit union being set up by local people. While that was discussed there has been no formal proposal to date. The registrar will be happy to meet any party interested in setting up a new credit union.
