My final question relates to European social funding for women's equality measures. It is stated a saving of €127,000 was achieved but that this came about because of three existing projects not availing of an extension. As it was for employment purposes, what was lost in these three projects not continuing? How much money was drawn down? Are there other areas where the Department could draw down funding, or where it did draw down funding in the past but is not doing so now? Is it matching funding?
