There were meetings earlier this week of the Eurogroup and ECOFIN. The key outcome for Ireland was the possibility of extending the maturity of the money we have drawn down so far, under both of those streams of funding, over a longer term. The maturity was not set but presumably it will apply over a 30 year term or possibly longer. Has the NTMA calculated the potential savings for Ireland if all of that funding was extended to a maturity of 30 years or more at this stage?
