I can give the Deputy the figures for budget 2023. The matter is complicated by the fact that much of the funding and responsibility has been transferred from the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications to the Department of Transport in the past two to three years. The funding in 2021 might have been the overall funding because there would have been a variety of mechanisms for charging infrastructure. The funding for these mechanisms might have been some €100 million, whereas the EV grant funding was €36 million, I think. That may be the cause of a certain amount of the confusion.
