Does the Minister not have any power to release this letter? Do the Irish people not have an entitlement to understand the contents of the letter? This letter is important in the context of a banking inquiry. A banking inquiry should have a 360-degree view of what happened and no blind spots should be created by the Minister or the ECB. It is worrying that the ECB will not commit to providing this letter, but what is more worrying is the Minister's lack of commitment today to providing unfettered access to a complete, unredacted version of the letter. Will the Minister guarantee that he will make every effort to ensure that all his authority is used, in so far as it can be, to ensure this letter is provided?
