Brian Hayes (Dublin South West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank Deputy Deasy for raising the important issues of how Ireland's strategic investment fund will be managed, its remit, its mandate and how it will deliver balanced development for our country. I note to the Deputy that I have a foot in both camps in this context as a Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and at the Department of Finance. I wear both hats today.
