Question:

369 Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide a figure for total local government debt; the percentage it represents of overall national debt and the details and implementation of the EU-IMF programme of financial support on local government debt. [35897/11]

View answer

In 2009, the latest year for which audited information is available, loans payable by local authorities amounted to some €5.7bn. My colleague, the Minister for Finance, has responsibility for the national finances, including the national debt. In accordance with the EU/IMF Programme of Financial Support for Ireland, my Department is required to provide quarterly data on short, medium and long term local authority debt falling due over the following 36 months.
