Mr. John McCarthy:

We have big repayment humps in 2019 and 2020. A lot of bonds will be maturing. That cash is needed now because when the time comes to repay, for example €10 billion, Ireland will have that money ready rather than going to the market two days before the repayment is due when the markets would charge more. It would be a "name your price" situation. This is why the NTMA has built up this cash and it is sitting on deposit in various commercial banks or the Central Bank. It will be used to refinance the debt that matures. I believe a big bond is to mature in October of this year. In 2019 and 2020 a lot of bonds will mature.
