-----for when they do not have their accounts. We are talking about 2015, and the two Deputies here spoke strongly about it. Should there not be some reprimand made rather than continually paying out money? A figure of many millions of euro was mentioned. Should these organisations be getting this money if they do not come up to scratch? Should the Department withhold the funding? I know that the farming sector would not receive the money if we did something wrong.
