"A complex X-ray and Infrared Environment Around the Galactic Centre"
 

I will give an overview of the search for counterparts to the large population of X-ray sources distributed around the Galactic Centre. I will also discuss the issues that occur when studying sources in the infrared near the Galactic Centre due to high levels of variably-distributed extincting material.
