We will have a list of the grants we are paying out this year, which we will shortly supply it to the committee.
The Covid fund was mainly for staff in the Passport Office. That is where we have the largest concentration of Department of Foreign Affairs staff. We had them working at home for a period, but we are now bringing people back. Staffing in the Passport Office was the main area for which Covid funding was requested.
