Ministers unanimously endorse the measures announced today. Building on the strong fundamentals of the Irish economy, the programme rests on three pillars:
- An immediate strengthening and comprehensive overhaul of the banking system
- An ambitious fiscal adjustment to restore fiscal sustainability, including through
the correction of the excessive deficit by 2015
- Growth enhancing reforms, in particular on the labour market, to allow a return to a robust and sustainable growth, safeguarding the economic and social position of its citizens.
The financial package of the programme will cover financing needs up to € 85 billion, including € 10 billion for immediate recapitalisation measures, € 25 billion on a contingency basis for banking system supports and € 50 billion covering budget financing needs. Half of the banking support measures (€ 17½ billion) will be financed by an Irish contribution through the Treasury cash buffer and investments of the National Pension Reserve Fund. The remainder of the overall package should be shared equally amongst: (i) the European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM), (ii) the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) together with bilateral loans from the UK, Denmark and Sweden, and (iii) the IMF (€ 22½ billion each).
The main elements of policy conditionality, as endorsed today, will be enshrined in
Eurogroup and Council Decisions to be formally adopted on 6 and 7 December.
The Eurogroup will rapidly examine the necessity of aligning the maturities of the
financing for Greece to that of Ireland.
