General Scheme of the Future Ireland Fund and Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund Bill 2023: Discussion

Mr. Nick Ashmore:

No, they are not. The original National Pensions Reserve Fund had a separate corporate identity in the National Pensions Reserve Fund Commission. However, following the National Treasury Management Agency (Amendment) Act 2014, the agency established a formal board and can provide that governance on behalf of the State. These funds and the ISIF do not have a separate governance identity as such.
