Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:
The term underspend very often means only that the spend falls into the following year, not that the project does not in fact proceed. The social nature of the CEDRA projects makes them fairly complex and we would not expect everything to be done absolutely spot on within a calendar year. It is not the case that projects remain unfunded. That generally would not be the case.
