| The General Government Debt essentially includes the cumulative gross debt of the local government sector and the non-commercial state sponsored bodies as well as nearly all of the National Debt measured on a gross basis. It excludes Central Government liabilities to institutions classified within the General Government sector; these are included in the National Debt. |
| It should be noted that the National Debt is calculated net of domestic and foreign liquid assets whereas the General Government Debt is calculated on a gross basis. The debt of the commercial state bodies is excluded from both National Debt and General Government Debt. |
| The Finance Accounts for each year contains a detailed breakdown of the National Debt. |
