There is €240,000 that has gone to that area, but also we have allocated €850,000 over three years. There would be perhaps four or five different groups, but that would tell me there will be more than €220,000 or €250,000 per year for three years. Our officials can sit down with the HSE as well and address the Tallaght issue. It is part of the report that it was looking for €1 million, but we have allocated a sizeable amount of money for emerging trends and also to deal with cocaine and crack cocaine.
