EU finance ministers continue bailout scope talks

Eurozone finance ministers are continuing to discuss the size and scope of the European Financial Stability Fund at a meeting in Brussels.

Increasing the fund and making cheaper emergency loans available as part of a package to end the sovereign debt crisis are being discussed, but no firm decisions have been made.

The Chairman of the Eurozone Finance Ministers, Jean-Claude Juncker, said the ministers had discussed many options but favoured none and that negotiations would continue.
