Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

We already have advanced and are pleased to have received the €500,000 already. We expect the bulk of it will be returned within the next year or so but there may be some individuals for whom longer repayments will be needed. This is one reason we are considering the possibility of seeking to increase the payments for some retired teachers.
