I can confirm that formal comfort was provided to the Central Bank that any shortfall on the liquidation of collateral would be made good, as reported in the Central Bank Annual Report 2010.

The Deputy will understand, however, that the details of correspondence on this issue between the Minister and the Governor are market-sensitive and must remain confidential.
