Government Loan Guarantee Scheme

Any idea when this goes live? It was mentioned in the governments action plan for jobs recently. I read somewhere that this will be handled by one bank. Chances are AIB with it being state-owned?

I spoke with a Minister last week and he estimates it will be put through the Dail after the Summer recess so should be signed off by November... A tad slow!:rolleyes:

That's nuts.....
There's no reason why this can't be passed BEFORE the summer recess. Would really make you question their commitment to it in the first place

I agree with you. I laughed loudly at said Minister when he told me. When I pointed out to him that, with the best will in the world, an Entrepreneur is looking at waiting a year for help he was a bit tongue tied. They're clowns... all of them!:mad:
