156. To ask the Minister for Finance if he will ensure effective ongoing dialogue between Oireachtas Members and the Registry of Credit Unions by requiring the Registry of Credit Unions to appear before the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform on a regular basis; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Central Bank is independent in the exercise of its functions but the Governor or a Head of Function may be requested under section 32L of the Central Bank Act 1942 (as amended by the Central Bank Reform Act 2010) to appear before Committees of the Houses of the Oireachtas to address certain matters.
It is the prerogative of the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform to agree its own work programme as it sees fit. As Minister for Finance I would have no input into the Committee's agenda.
