Note (i) the National Treasury Management Agency  is known as the State Claims Agency when performing the functions of the State Claims Agency and (ii) the New Economy and Recovery Authority (NewERA) has been established within the National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA).

With regard to the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council I am responsible for answering questions concerning my functions (primarily appointment of Members and terms and conditions of Members and staff) under the Fiscal Responsibilities Acts 2012 and 2013. The Acts provide for the full independence of the Council in the performance of its functions.
