I thank the Chairman. We are nearly up to the two hour limit. The witnesses have been fantastic in their answers. I will start with a positive. It is phenomenal that the Chairman's constituency and my constituency are by a Camino-type walkway. The Beara Breifne Way has significant potential. It must be promoted and pushed because it involves everything good that Ireland has to offer. It runs from the tip of the Beara peninsula up to County Cavan. The Chairman and I will meet halfway on it some day.
I wish to get into a bit more detail on a few issues that have been touched on, particularly Fáilte Ireland operations. I refer to the adaptation grant. How much has been paid out on the adaptation grant so far and how much remains to be paid out? When is it expected that the remainder could be paid out?
