Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

It is right that the legislation provides for resources to be used efficiently, effectively and economically by the Central Bank and its constituent parts. Regulation and supervision should also be cost effective and the burdens imposed should be proportionate to the intended benefits. This is normally achieved through a regulatory impact analysis coupled with periodic independent reviews, but the Bill does not appear to provide for such mechanisms.
