I have regular contact with the representatives of the financial sector — both domestic and international banks. In addition, I am kept closely in touch with developments through ongoing dialogue at official level.

I do not believe it would be helpful to discuss individual meetings or correspondence. I am sure that the Deputy will recognise the strong potential for misinterpretation and misinformation in the market if I were to publicly discuss each individual meeting that I have held.
