Mr. Colm Hayes:

Yes, if it continues into the next RDP programme. That transition between rural development programmes is normal in that people have contracts that continue. The overspend under the previous programme was much larger, at approximately €600 million. Given the uncertainty over the budget this time around and everything that has happened, it is prudent to keep the overspend at the most manageable level possible. I can give an undertaking that when we conclude the updated expenditure review of the rural development programme we will communicate it to the committee.
