The Deputy is out of time. I will open a second round for members of three minutes each. While people are gathering their thoughts, perhaps members will indicate using the hands-up button on their Teams screens if they want to come in for a second round. In the meantime, I will ask a couple of questions.

I want to return to the issue of SMEs and the recovery. We heard a little bit this week, although maybe not as much as I would like, about the EU recovery funds to which Ireland may have access. With regard to those grants and loans, what will the financial packages involved look like and what is the role of the Central Bank in this regard? Does it Bank have any role in regulation? In what way will the funds make their way to SMEs?
