Ireland EUR120 Billion Rescue In Works - UK Sunday Times
By Dow Jones
TEL AVIV (MarketWatch)--The International Monetary Fund, European Union and European Central Bank are preparing a EUR120 billion ($164 billion) bailout of Ireland, requiring the country to raise taxes and nationalize more banks, the Sunday Times of London reported. The plan, which would exceed the EUR110 billion bailout created for Greece, could be unveiled as early as Monday morning, the paper reported.
Ireland's cabinet is meeting in an emergency session this weekend to complete a four-year budget, the paper reported. The budget is also set for release this week, the Sunday Times reported.
A property tax of EUR500 a house plus more public-sector cuts are expected to be part of the plan, the paper said.
A team that is figuring out how to restructure Ireland's banks is also developing a proposal for a wealth tax on the country's richest citizens, the Sunday Times reported.
France and Germany are pressuring Ireland to raise its 12.5% corporate-tax rate, the paper reported.
And the EU is expected to guarantee bonds issued by Irish banks and to extend that guarantee across Europe to prevent speculators from going after Portugal or Spain, the Sunday Times reported.
