The Minister has agreed to update the committee as these matters flesh themselves out, as the Commission approves and the applications come in. We are very grateful to the Minister and his team for that. I am going to abuse my position in the chair somewhat now. The Minister referenced his availability to talk to us about the Brexit Adjustment Reserve, BAR, fund and I have one brief question on that. The chef de cabinet of Commissioner Ferreira indicated in December that an initial allocation was made. Have particular projects been identified and has money been allocated to them from that fund? The Minister can revert to the committee if he does not have the information to hand today.
