Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

We are in a better position this January than our position last year. The difficulties arose in the autumn. We have the information. We did a census of the VECs in early January last year. Our position has improved on the same time last year. We fully accept the difficulties and the challenges. The Minister has apologised and we reiterate that apology.
