We are having an interesting debate about policy but this is more a review of progress to date this year. I read with interest the Minister's opening speech, which we receive the night before meetings. One line jumped out at me and I ask the Minister to clarify it. He stated an extra €20 million had been spent since the beginning of this month on capital. How much of that €20 million was spent on the rural development schemes? Under the big headings, roughly how much - to the nearest €1 million - was spent on LEADER, the town and village scheme and the local improvement schemes, respectively?
