Please do so. The cost is noteworthy. I submitted a parliamentary question some time back. In 2021, the overall cost in funding from the Exchequer was €9.34 billion. How much more has the Exchequer contributed this year and last year? That included an estimate for 2021 of €1.3 billion. The figure has continued to increase from €495 million in 2015, accelerating to almost €2 billion in 2019. It seems to be substantial.
