Here are some highlights:
"At 30 June 2010, the gross external debt of all resident sectors (i.e. general government, the monetary authority, financial and non-financial corporations and households) amounted to €1,737bn." So Irish total gross external debt rose €63bn qoq.
Our total foreign liabilities stood at €2,643bn and are offset by €2,500bn of foreign assets.
The liabilities also include €1,218bn of equity and derivative liabilities that do not form part of external debt.
Liabilities of the Monetary Authority (to ECB) that consist almost entirely of short term loans and deposits, amounted to €66bn, an increase of €28bn on Q1 2010, but down €38bn on Q2 2009.
General government foreign borrowing decreased by over €3bn to €80bn between end-March and end-June 2010.
The liabilities of other sectors (financial intermediaries and non-financial corporates) increased by €17bn from Q1 and at €657bn represented 38% of the total debt, a similar share to the
previous quarter.
Direct investment liabilities increased by €17bn to €262bn in Q2
Liabilities of monetary financial institutions (credit institutions and money market funds) consisting mostly of loans and debt securities were €672bn, an increase of over €5bn on Q1, but down €18bn on Q2 2009.

Lastly, removing Government from the equation:
Clearly, a sign of expanding liabilities and rising assets, with net balance on the negative side slightly worse than in Q1.Summarizing these in tables:
