I refer to the idea, then, of us committing more than €5 million in advance of knowing what other legacies or debts existed in the organisation. I appreciate it was a difficult situation for the Department to keep the ship moving forward, but this was a great deal of money to put into an organisation at a time when we did not know where the financial structure stood.
