Vol. 469 No. 6
120 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the amount paid in interest on loans from financial institutions by semi-State bodies under the aegis of his Department since 1992; if he has satisfied himself with such arrangements; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17956/96]
Information in relation to interest paid on loans/overdrafts, which has been furnished to me by bodies under the aegis of my Department, is set out in the following table for the period 1993-95. I have no cause to be dissatisfied with the existing arrangements relating to such interest payments.
I understand that no interest charges for the period in question were incurred by the bodies under the aegis of my Department not listed in the table.
