Pat Rabbitte
Ceist:88 Mr. Rabbitte asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if, in view of the figures given in the Book of Estimates, showing that the Exchequer wrote off £14.1 million in 1989 and £7.9 million in 1990 in currency exchange losses on foreign borrowing by the ICC, he will indicate if it is intended to continue with this subsidy in the event of the privatisation of the ICC; if he will give an assurance that ICC's accounts reflect this subsidy; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
