Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: EU Budgetary Proposals: Department of Finance (4 Oct 2023)

Jim O'Callaghan: I thank Mr. Tobin and his colleagues for coming before the committee. I thank Mr. Tobin for his concise and very informative brief presentation.
