The Irish debt rate is high, but the low growth in the CPI, high GDP, and one of the highest growth rates in Europe do give it a lot of hope. It has also staged an abrupt turn around in spending without the protests and riots that have characterized Spanish and Greek reforms.
Surprised by the high per capita income for Ireland. Just shows that with social justice few people in that country should be suffering as much as they are! Fair tax systems and redistribution of wealth should be at the heart of policy making across the EU.
James, Yes, the debts covered by the Irish bank guarantee are included, which is why the deficit is so huge in 2010.
Very useful information. Keep up the good work!
Great to see data presented so clearly and unambiguously, though being Irish; it is not a pretty site. I am correct in saying that the Irish national debt includes the debts of the Irish banking sector?
