On subhead B5, I understand the proposed number of places available under the new scheme launched in the previous budget was 6,000. Under this subhead, funding will be cut by €2 million or 17.4% and the uptake will be approximately 600 places in 2014. Why has provision been made for such an abysmally low number of places?
