Central Bank legislation

Summary

McGrath asks about the Central Bank (Consolidation) Bill amid concerns about a departing regulator and Lloyds; the Taoiseach says it follows the supervision and enforcement Bill.

I hope Deputy Hayes has sorted it out for Tipperary and all the householders who need it. With regard to the Central Bank (consolidation) Bill, a certain Mr. Elderfield is leaving our shores and going back to Lloyds. There are a huge question marks about the way Lloyds dealt with Bank of Scotland Ireland.

It will happen after the Central Bank (Supervision and Enforcement) Bill. The geothermal energy development Bill is next year. The Deputy mentioned seeing the wood from the trees. I had an opportunity to do the Galtee walk a number of years ago and there was absolute clarity and no fog at all down there.
