The Finance Minister is planning to offload the Government's 13.7% share over the next few years. He didn't go into too many specifics because it could have affected the market. The Government bailed out Bank of Ireland a decade ago after the crash to the tune of €4.7billion. Shares already sold have reaped €5.9billion, meaning we are already in profit on our bailout. Mr Donohoe said: "Today's announcement marks the start of a phased exit from the State's remaining investment in Bank of Ireland. When all cashflows are taken into account the taxpayer has already recorded a surplus on its investment in and support for the bank, even before the sales of these €4.7bn How much shares are accounted for. pumped into after the CONDITIONS "A trading plan enables the State to sell down its shares in a low cost carefully controlled manner while avoiding the need to try to time our disposals with market conditions." €5.9bn How much shares sold have made us in profit on However, critics say that now is the wrong time to sell, as the price of shares is still rising and the taxpayer could lose out on hundreds of million more euro if we don't hold out. 13.7% How much in Government is offload Labour finance spokesman Ged Nash said: "This is, in my view, a short­sighted and dogmatic position to adopt and the State can, if so minded, use its function and shareholdings much more strategically.

  • Don't Tax Our Health Choices!
    DON’T TAX OUR HEALTH CHOICES! From March 1st 2019 the Government will be applying VAT at 23% to all Vitamin, Probiotic & Food Supplements. These supplements have been VAT free for the last 40 years! A2 POSTER CODE: VAT03 A4 POSTER CODE: VAT04 +23% Available from Wholefoods VAT HEALTH IS NOT A LUXURY! SIGN THE PETITION TODAY! @stopthisvat www.stopthisvat.ie What is happening: The Revenue Commissioners have decided that on March 1st 2019, 23% VAT will be applied to all health food supplements. This includes Vitamins, Probiotics and Fish Oil. What does this mean? On March 1st 2019, retailers must apply 23% VAT to all health food supplements, resulting in a 23% price increase for consumers. Such a sudden and radical increase in taxation will put a huge strain on consumers and cause many to have to reconsider their approach towards managing their health. This is bound to seriously damage the local Irish businesses that are the cornerstone of the industry sector, particularly if consumers turn to the international Internet to try and obtain a better priced product. What can I do: • Sign the petition (online and in-store) which can be found at www.stopthisvat.ie. • Additional petition hardcopies are available from Wholefoods Wholesale (product code: VAT02). Wholefoods drivers will happily take completed petitions back from you. Please ensure that all petitions are returned to Wholefoods by February 18th. • Actively encourage customers to sign the petition and highlight what VAT will mean for their purchases. • Email or write to your local minister or TD. Sample text can be found on page 3 of this document.
