Request Reference Revised: I request the following records concerning the Israeli Bond Programme as per details outlined in the Governor's letter to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach on December 4, 2025. Period of records: 1 June 2024-present: • Article 20(4) of the Prospectus Regulation clarifies that a competent authority needs to review a prospectus application against the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and consistency necessary for its approval. Please provide a copy of any records summarising the internal review and scrutiny process and/or summarising the findings/results of the internal review and scrutiny process undertaken before approval of the prospectus documentation from the Israeli bond programme on 2 September 2024; • Please provide a copy of reports, memos or internal correspondence outlining any issues or concerns raised internally during the FOI-2025-001612 22/04/2025 review and/or scrutiny process as to standards of completeness, comprehensibility and/or consistency of the information in the (draft) Media Part Granted 20/05/2025 prospectus which was approved on 2 September 2024; • The governor's letter states that “the Central Bank can suspend the offer of the securities for a maximum of 10 consecutive working days where it has reasonable grounds to believe that there has been an infringement of the Prospectus Regulation. The Central Bank has not identified any such infringement at this time.” Please provide any records outlining the research or investigative steps taken by the Central Bank to conclude that there have been no infringements since the approval of the September 2024 prospectus; • The Governor’s letter states that “internal review and scrutiny processes in line with the Central Bank’s risk-based approach to prospectus security have been followed.” Please provide a copy of CBI's risk-based approach policy or equivalent document used to determine the risk level of issuers. Please also provide a copy of any briefing, summary document, report, memo or letter outlining details of how this risk-based approach was applied or taken before prospectus approval on 2 September 2024.
