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

Statement of Strategy 2017: Department of Finance

10:00 am

Mr. Derek Moran:

There is need to rethink and reinvent. There is no suggestion in what we are looking at that it is going to happen. When we look at what would happen if there was a 3% global GDP shock, we are not saying that it is going to happen. We are looking at what it would look like and what responses might be necessary. That is a core part of the work of this group, which allows for the wider sharing of information across the institutions. There is an added piece around the terms of reference. We are happy to share the terms of reference with the committee.
