‹ Order of Business Strategic investment bank
Summary
Mick Wallace asks whether the promised State-controlled strategic investment bank remains planned. The Taoiseach says work is continuing, though the proposal is complicated.
The programme for Government includes a promise for the establishment of a State-controlled strategic investment bank. It was interesting to note the French introduced such an institution two weeks ago, which will pump €42 billion into small and medium-sized businesses. Is a State-controlled strategic investment bank still on the cards for the Government?
