Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

2:00 pm

Mr. Ronan Hession:

It is probably too early in the process to say. This proposal emerged about five weeks ago. We are doing what we can internally. Despite how far we have got, it is becoming clear to us that we will need a deeper piece of work. In the new year, we will probably consider commissioning work. We will have to try to time that so it will have an input into the policy discussion.
