Mr. Paddy Hopkins:

There would have been a lot of sale figures included in that amount also. Enterprise Ireland was established in late 1998. From 1999 to 2011 there were total sales of €360 million of shares, on which we made a profit of €178 million. The cost of the disposals was €182 million. Let us examine the investments we made at the same time. During the period 1999 to 2011 we invested €386 million in ordinary and preference equity shares and that sum appears on the shares side. As I said, the income was €360 million and we have a residual value of €172 million noted in the accounts as the written down value. The Deputy can read note 10 which states the figure is €172.67 million. On the equity side, we made a profit of €170 million duirng that 11 year period.
