Mr. Niall Redmond:

Approximately €37 million has been paid out. Actually, as of this morning, approximately €39 million had been paid out to providers under the scheme. To answer the direct question, the scheme covers a contribution towards a number of different costs related to Covid-19. These include additional staffing costs, additional cleaning costs, infection prevention and control costs and training. There is a broad range of inclusion criteria and my understanding of the funding paid out so far is that the vast majority has related to staffing costs. This may involve hiring extra staff to cover absences or to supplement the existing staffing complement in a nursing home.
