Question:

81 Mr. Cox asked the Minister for Finance if he will give details of the total Irish receipts per annum from the EC, by fund, such as EAGGF, European Regional Development Fund, ESF and other such funds; and the proportion of Irish GDP such funds accounted for.

The reply to the Deputy's question is set out in the attached Table which I propose to circulate to the House.
