I have met with representatives of the IMF on the following occasions: Wednesday 16 March 2011; and Tuesday 12 April 2011.

As regards future meetings, none have been specifically scheduled but it would be reasonable to expect that I will meet with IMF representatives during their future review missions to Ireland under the EU/IMF Programme. Currently, quarterly review missions have been provisionally scheduled for:

· Mid-July 2011;

· Mid-October 2011; and

· Mid-January 2012.

It is likely that I will also attend the annual meeting of the IMF and the World Bank in Washington D.C., which takes place in the Autumn each year.
