Mr. Richard Dixon:

The overall grant rate in 2022 was exceptionally high at 80%. That reflects the impact of the strand of the regularisation scheme as well as the follow-on from Covid. The grant rate in 2023 was 38%. For comparison, across Europe it was 48%, so our grant rate is slightly below what we have seen in the rest of Europe.
