I, MICHAEL NOONAN, Minister for Finance, in exercise of the powers conferred on me by section 15 of the Central Bank and Credit Institutions (Resolution) Act 2011 (Number 27 of 2011), having consulted with the Central Bank of Ireland and the Credit Union Advisory Committee, hereby make the following regulations:

1.

These Regulations may be cited as the Credit Institutions Resolution Fund Levy Regulations 2012.

“levy period” means the period commencing on 1 October 2012 and ending on 30 September 2013.

(2) In these Regulations, as respects an authorised credit institution other than a credit union-

(a) a reference to an amount due to an institution in respect of loans shall be construed as including loans which have been securitised by that institution;

(b) a reference to an amount due to that institution by Irish-resident households in respect of loans shall be construed as a reference to the aggregate of the amounts specified in the Resident Offices Return (RS1) as reported by that institution to the Bank at 29 June 2012-

(3) In these Regulations, as respects an authorised credit institution which is a credit union, a reference to the total assets of a credit union shall be construed as a reference to the total assets reported by that institution in the balance sheet of that institution forming part of the quarterly prudential return made to the Registrar of Credit Unions in respect of the reporting date of 30 June 2012.
