Ireland’s Department of Finance has opened a public consultation on how Ireland should exercise national discretions under the EU Listings Act package, focusing on prospectus exemption thresholds and the disclosure requirements for issuers using those exemptions. The consultation asks whether Ireland should set the prospectus exemption threshold at EUR 12,000,000 or EUR 5,000,000, and whether an issuer relying on the exemption should be required to publish a full prospectus or a summarised version. It also invites respondents to flag any issues with the transposition of the package. Submissions are open until 18 March 2025. The Department notes that transposition of the Listings Act package needs to be concluded by 4 June 2026.
