Is he saying that we will revert back to the old system, that he supplied, where one was paid on acceptance to the scheme having passed the checks rather than after the first year as in the AEOS system? That is what was hinted at in the parliamentary reply to my question. All we are looking for is a clear answer. Are we getting paid cash upfront? If so, that would be great news and I would welcome that news here publicly. Are we getting paid at the end of year 1?
