There has been some virement of Leader funding. We were unable to spend all the Leader funding this year, mainly because it was later in the year when the contracts were signed. It is all going well now. On this basis, I wanted to ensure we could spend as much of our allocation as possible. Therefore, there has been some virement, and €22 million has gone into the rural economic development zone, REDZ, scheme.
