WHEREAS I, BRIAN COWEN, Minister for Finance, am of the opinion that the bodies specified in the following regulations ought, in the public interest and having regard to the provisions and spirit of the Ethics in Public Office Act 1995 (No. 22 of 1995) (hereafter referred to as “the Act”), to be prescribed:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BRIAN COWEN, Minister for Finance, in exercise of the powers conferred on me by section 3 of, and paragraph 1(13) of the First Schedule to, the Act and after consultation with such other Ministers of the Government as I consider appropriate, hereby make the following regulations:
