answer text <p>The National Fund was set up by a trust deed in 1928. The Fund is held on trust for the purpose of reducing the National Debt. According to expert evidence, there is no realistic prospect of the Fund ever amounting to a sum sufficient to pay off the whole of the National Debt. On 22<sup>nd</sup> May 2018 the former Attorney General made an application to the High Court to vary the terms of the charitable trust.</p><p>While we expect the substantive hearing to take place in 2019, we have not yet received a hearing date from the High Court.</p> more like this
