I can inform the Deputy that there has been one fine imposed on my Department by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in relation to a delay in transposing Directive (EU) 2015/849 on the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purposes of money laundering or terrorist financing. On July 16, 2020, the ECJ imposed a €2 million lump-sum fine for this delay. The Court accepted that the Directive has now been fully transposed by Ireland.
