Mr. Hubert Loftus:

The point I was going to make is that the ten-year capital envelope provided in the national development plan, which amounts to €8.4 billion, enables us to plan strategically for the longer term to address the needs of existing schools that are already in accommodation which needs to be improved. As part of that, we will be rolling out a deep energy refit programme from 2023 onwards.
