I thank the Minister and her officials for attending to discuss this Supplementary Estimate. The 610 additional SNA posts, which the €6 million increase will cover, is approximately 5% more than was projected in the original Estimate for 2015, which is a significant overshoot. What has led to the increase of 5% in demand? Is that indicative of increased application numbers or did the number of applications increase by more than 5%?
