I understand from IDA Ireland that the jobs involved in this case were not in the internationally traded services category and that IDA did not have dealings with the Bank in relation to the jobs. Regulatory and other public policy matters in relation to domestic banking operations in Ireland are within the remit of the Minister for Finance. Should any issues arise for my Department from the matter, for example redundancy applications, these will of course be processed in the normal way.
