We had committed funding to promote the operation of the local community development committees, LCDC, and there were some savings there. The other area of savings was from rural supports which, frankly, I am not as familiar with. There was; €570,000 from subhead A4 - rural supports; and €200,000 from the LCDC supports. We are looking at other areas as well to hopefully bring us to savings of between €1.5 million and €2 million that we can put directly into communities at a practical and immediate level before the end of the year.
