Hopefully they use this to build more housing.

  I thought Ireland already had a huge glut of housing that nobody wanted?

    Quite the contrary. There is a monumental housing shortage. But this is not where this money will go. When all is said and done, if Apple still owes that much, it'll be divided with the rest of the EU according to Apple's sales. Thanks to its tech hubs (it seems every other person on the train is a software engineer), Ireland may end up with some part of it, but most certainly not all.

      What happened to that huge number of empty estates built during the boom? Are they in the wrong place? Can people live there but work from home?
