Hon GRANT ROBERTSON (Minister of Finance): Mr Chair, thank you very much. So, as you've indicated, this is the part that deals with financial and accountability measures. The first part of it is the requirement upon the Minister of Finance to issue a financial policy remit. This is an important part of the bill in terms of matching the monetary policy remit process with the financial policy remit. This is about making sure that there is a remit containing matters that the Minister considers desirable for the bank to have regard to in relation to achieving the financial stability objectives; essentially, looking in particular at the way it furthers the purposes of the prudential legislation and the bank's prudential functions.
