The Taoiseach Enda Kenny has reminded everyone that the Euro is Ireland's national currency.

It comes after a CNBC anchor expressed his surprise earlier this week that we use the EU money.

Joe Kernen then went on to wonder why we were not using the British pound.

In an interview with the IDA Ireland Chief Executive Martin Shanahan, some of the eyebrow raising questions included: "Why have the Euro in Ireland? What about Scotland? Northern Ireland's the pound? It's sort of the same Ireland, isn't it?".

But speaking in Dublin tonight at a jobs announcement, Mr Kenny made it clear.
