The Education Minister Ruairi Quinn has said the Government is determined to return to the bond markets next year, despite suggestions that Ireland should begin talks on a second bailout.
One of the world's biggest banks, Citigroup, has urged Finance Minister Michael Noonan to negotiate a second bailout in case Ireland remains locked out of the markets.
Launching a €4m science initiative in DCU this morning, Education Minister Ruairi Quinn said no decisions had been taken on a second bailout, and that Ireland would return to the bond markets next year.
"We intend still to be in a position to re-enter the markets at the end of 2013 should we want to do so," he said
