The 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 Governments, public sector bodies, commercial semi-state bodies or private sector entities.
The Deputy will find in the table 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 2011-2016 (to date). Projects from the Housing, Education, Health and Broadband sectors are highlighted in italics and bold.
The Deputy should note that the amounts listed in the table below refer to the EIB contribution to a particular project, which is normally limited to no more than 50% of the project cost. In addition, the timing of the actual financing drawn down from the EIB is determined within individual financing contracts which is a matter for the EIB and each 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: http://www.eib.org/projects/loans/index.htm
