On 16 December 2013, Mr Jim Luby of McStay Luby Chartered Accountants was appointed by the High Court, under the Central Bank and Credit Institutions (Resolution) Act 2011, as liquidator of Newbridge Credit Union Limited (in liquidation). 

The liquidator owes a duty to the creditors of Newbridge Credit Union Limited and must account for his actions to the High Court. As such, the disposal of the assets of the credit union is a matter for the liquidator.

As Minister for Finance, I do not have powers to issue instructions to a liquidator appointed by the High Court.
