Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 July 2020
220. Deputy Paul McAuliffe asked the Minister for Finance if the State is responsible for the costs associated with the management of the funds of a company (details supplied) while they were in an escrow account; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17992/20]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, the State recovered the alleged State aid from Apple in full by September 2018. The total amount recovered was circa €14.3 billion (which is the principal and relevant EU interest). These sums are held in an Escrow Fund with the proceeds to be released only when there has been a final determination of the case by the European Courts.
All income, expenses, gains, and losses accrue to the Fund, including those associated with the management of the Fund.
