Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the Republic of Ireland is due to conclude the repayment of its loan under the Loans to Ireland Act 2010 by March 2021; and how much in interest will have been paid from the outset to full repayment.

Ireland is due to repay the final tranche of its bilateral loan from the UK in March 2021. The Government continues to expect the loan to be repaid in full and on time. The next report under section 2 of the Loans to Ireland Act 2010, which the Government will publish in April 2021, will disclose all interest payments from the outset to full repayment.
