Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)

On the question of the total amount, it is clear it will be substantially less than the statutory limit of €54 billion, but I am not in a position to say until the valuation methodology is complete. The best estimate which can be given at this stage is that the final valuation will be broadly in line with the initial valuation of the initial tranche.
