Overview of Financial Sector: Discussion with Permanent TSB
11:50 am
Mr. Jeremy Masding:
Sorry, I make this slight error all the time. The sum of €4 billion was then, on a net basis, reduced when we sold Irish Life to Canada Life. I argue that the net taxpayer injection into the Permanent TSB Group Holding is €1.7 billion. We were given €4 billion when we owned Irish Life. That was sold by the Minister so one can make the argument that the net taxpayer investment is €2.7 billion.
