Some time ago I sought information on certain emails between the Department of Finance and other organisations. The request was refused on volume grounds (I am appealing), but in the internal review the Department broke down email volumes for the period I requested, September 1, 2007 to June 30, 2009. Here is the breakdown:
The email exchange to both Bank of Ireland and to the Department of the Taoiseach are particularly interesting. Why was Bank of Ireland more than twice Anglo? Interesting.
Was the Central Bank just not responding or
something?
The DOF response rate to Anglo also seem to be pretty low.
It would be even more interesting to see a month-by-month break
down of these numbers.
why none to and from NAMA? They don’t talk to each other at all at all?
The date range would mean NAMA was likely not established by June 2009.
