Government bonds are usually instruments used by governments to borrow money.
According to the Central Bank, government bonds are one of the more secure types of investments available as "there is a very low likelihood that the government would not pay."
During the bond's life, the government pays interest to bondholders and the principal amount borrowed is returned when the facility matures.
