What I have stated already today is hot off the presses. It is that I have allocated an additional €500,000 this year to the IDA to make sure it can deal with the Brexit issue. No decision has been made as yet regarding the 2017 allocations. The Deputy mentioned the effects over the years to come and I note the Department is in the act of putting together the Estimates for the budget for 2017. Moreover, there will be allocations of money sought for Brexit and I will be pressing the enterprise case.
