Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 January 2016
76. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Finance the amount Ireland has drawn down from the European Investment Bank for each year since 2011, by project; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3577/16]
View answerThe European Investment Bank (EIB) is the long-term financing institution of the European Union. Its mission is to help implement the EU's policy objectives by providing financing to projects that address these objectives. The EIB may lend to lend to Governments, public sector bodies, commercial semi-state bodies or private sector entities.
The Deputy will find below a table with a breakdown of private and public sector (including commercial semi-state) projects in Ireland to which the European Investment Bank (EIB) has provided financing. The table sets out the project name, the sector involved, the date of contract signature and amount for each project for the period 2011-2015.
The Deputy should note that it is not possible to provide the amount "drawn-down" by each project as the schedule of financing drawn down is determined within individual financing contracts and is confidential between the EIB and the project promoter.
The Deputy may also wish to be aware that information on the projects signed between the EIB and project promoters in Ireland is also publicly available on the EIB website. A link to the relevant section of the site is available here: www.eib.org/projects/loans/index.htm
