Michael Noonan (Limerick City, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank Deputy Jim Daly.

The Central Bank is independent and I cannot compel it to provide the Deputy with the information he requests. However, I will get my officials to forward copies of Deputy Jim Daly's interventions today to the Governor of the Central Bank and ask him to provide the Deputy with the information requested or, if he is unable to do that, to provide an explanation as to why he is able to do so.
