25. To ask the Minister for Finance if he will instruct the Central Bank of Ireland to listen to and to forward on its comments on the rest of the Anglo Irish recordings to which it has access to the Gardaí and Director of Corporate Enforcement. [41510/13]

Neither I nor my Department have any role in the on-going Garda or other regulatory investigations into Anglo Irish Bank or any other Irish Bank. It would be completely inappropriate for the Department of Finance to act outside of its legal powers and interfere with any investigation that could compromise potential future criminal or civil investigations by the bodies responsible under statute. I understand that the Central Bank of Ireland do intend to share with An Garda Síochána, on a without prejudice basis, the Central Bank’s analysis of the issues arising in the Anglo Irish recordings which led the CBI to conclude that no new issues have been identified that relate to suspected criminal offences having occurred.
