Validation rules

64 rules, as counted from the CBI's published material. They are written for people to read; software cannot run them as published. Source

How they are written: Excel list of checks with a formula written in the Central Bank's own row and column notation; not XBRL formulas.

These are the Central Bank's own data quality checks on top of EIOPA's taxonomy rules. The workbook says some (for example missing values) are treated as de facto blocking and others are plausibility checks. EIOPA's own validation rules for the return are counted in the library's EIOPA entry.

The rules, on centralbank.ie

How they were counted

Rows in sheet 'Best Practice Check' of 'Taxonomy 2.8.2 Data Quality Checks 2025' whose 'A and/or Quarters' column includes Q (62 'A,Q' and 2 'Q'). The workbook does not say which checks apply to groups.

Counts are in the CBI's own unit, so they are not comparable with other regulators' counts.
