That is good because I have attempted to come to terms with it and failed. I need help. We need to look at this matter more closely to find out what is happening. Approximately 50% of the fund, perhaps more, is unspent, while organisations are struggling for money. Some Departments are much worse than others. I have tried to get to the bottom of the matter and, like other Deputies, have tabled questions in the Dáil about it, but I have failed utterly to grasp it. An effort was made by the committee to have a review carried out. Now that one has been carried out, we must look at it and decide if value for money is being obtained and find out what exactly is happening.
