Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

On 31 January 2012, there were 69 whole-time equivalents within the CDVEC on this. As well as that, a number of staff are employed by the private contractor but they do not come within the public sector numbers. We responded at all times to any request for staff from SUSI as the difficulties emerged in the autumn, and we have met all those requirements.
