I propose to take Questions Nos. 158 and 159 together.
My Department recently received a request for a further instalment of the capital grant for the Solas project. That application is currently being examined, and a payment will issue once all of the usual conditions for a grant payment have been satisfied.
The decision as to when approval will be given for permission to sign a contract for phase two of the Solas project will depend on a number of factors, including progress on phase one of the contract, and also progress on obtaining the required matching funding by the project promoters.
