Let us put it on the record. In all estimation, the Minister might use all of the Department's money. I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy McHugh's announcement about an stratéis óige don Ghaeltacht, but the reality is that the Minister, Deputy Humphreys, has given a hospital pass to the Minister, Deputy Ring, who will not be able to spend the €13 million or more of the capital he has been given because it is too late to do so. That happened under the Minister, Deputy Humphreys's management up to the end of July.
