The €52 million, as the Deputy is aware, is the funding being used to pay the current scheme. It depends on the cost per applicant and what scope remains within the €52 million then to reopen the scheme, if any, and these matters are under consideration. I am satisfied that the €52 million will meet all our existing liabilities. The question is what discretion there may be within that envelope to meet additional payments.
