There was mention of €400 million on "Morning Ireland" this morning. To go back to what Deputy Murphy was dealing with, the officials are not allowed comment on policy but at this point the message in the media, which I presume emanates from the Department's press office, is that €400 million went back into the Exchequer. Is that an indication that the fiscal space, to use that terrible phrase, may be different or is it an assumption that it will be paid off the €201 billion?
