Government Urged To Reinvest AIB Share Sale In Services

The Government’s being urged to follow the example of France and Germany and use the sale of AIB shares to invest in services.

Last night the Minister for Finance confirmed the sale of 25 per cent of shares will go ahead.

Just two weeks ago the Dáil passed a Labour motion, proposing that the sale be called off – because the Government says the EU is forcing it to use the proceeds to pay off our national debt.
