DUBLIN, Sept 10 (Reuters) - Over 13 billion euros ($14

billion) of back taxes that Apple ( AAPL ) is set to pay Ireland

in the wake of Tuesday's ruling by the European Union's top

court will not change the scale of the national budget on Oct.

1, the Irish finance minister said.

Speaking to journalists in Dublin, Jack Chambers said the

state would consider carefully over the coming weeks how to use

the funds. He said it was not possible yet to comment on whether

other countries might lay claim to part of the funds.
