In terms of the budget for 2013, I want a figure for what was allocated and what was drawn down. It is one thing to say that there is approved lending. We have got feedback from businesses that loans are often approved but the drawdown conditions are so unreasonable that businesses do not proceed to draw down. Also, the length of the approval process for drawing down is a major issue.
