At all stages of the international financial crisis, I have had contact with my UK counterpart regarding all aspects of the response to this crisis, including the respective State support schemes in both jurisdictions for financial institutions. In addition, there has been close contact on issues of mutual interest between representatives of the central banks, financial services regulators and financial ministries in the UK and Ireland to facilitate cooperation and coordination in financial crisis prevention, management and resolution for cross-border institutions.
