The Minister was before us last week to discuss the budget for the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation for the coming year. We learnt that in the Estimates there will be an extra €1 million applied to the new statutory body that will be set up. We pressed the Minister on whether there would be enough finance available and she stated that if there is a demand for it, it would be made available. In fairness to her, she did put those fears to rest last week. Would Mr. Egan or Mr. Madigan like to comment on that question as well?
