Joe Walsh
Question:35 Mr. J. Walsh asked the Minister for Finance the approximate individual and cumulative net value of all semi-State companies. [2594/96]
Written Answers. - Semi-State Companies.
I take it that the Deputy's interest concerns the main commercial State bodies. The latest official information regarding the net worth of commercial State bodies is that published in table 7 of the Public Capital Programme, 1995. That table covers 18 bodies and gives their cumulative net worth as £2,839 million. The net worth for each of the companies concerned and two others besides is contained in the following.
