B & I equity base

Summary

Kavanagh asked whether the Minister would increase B & I’s equity to keep it operating; the Minister said no funds were available for equity.

In view of the many occasions on which the Minister, when on this side of the House, expressed concern about another shipping company which was wholly-owned by the State, would he indicate whether he will show the same concern — in regard to Question No. 24 — to increase the equity base to ensure that the State company, B & I, will remain operational?

Comment on this

The Deputy is fully aware that in the tight financial situation in which we find ourselves, there is no money available for equity.
