In total since 2012, €50 million has been lent to small and medium enterprises under the scheme supporting 2,500 jobs. We can get the 2015 figure and forward it to the Deputy. We are a little disappointed with the credit guarantee scheme and we are looking at other ways to make sure small and medium enterprises can draw down the money that is available.
The Deputy asked me if the local enterprise offices, LEOs, had got their full allocation and if they will get more money. I am sorry, but they have got their full allocation for this year.
