As the Deputy is aware, my Department and I engage with the Central Bank and the Governor of the Central Bank on a regular basis. Throughout these engagements my Department and the Bank discuss a wide variety of issues.
This effective engagement with the Central Bank is accomplished through a mutual understanding and respect of the roles carried out by the Department and the Bank.
The Central Bank is entirely independent in the performance of its functions. The independence of the Central Bank is enshrined in the Treaties of the European Union and in the Statute of the European System of Central Banks.
