Payments to Section 39 Companies: Discussion
4:00 pm
Mr. Paul O'Toole:
That is, but not out of the €27 million. We fund the trainees separately. That is tied up with the float question Deputy Collins asked on that. In other words, our contractors pay the trainees directly on our behalf and we keep them in funds to pay those trainees. The payments they get are analogous to their social welfare entitlement.
