Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
I cannot answer that off the top of my head but I can get an answer for the Deputy. A number of particular restorative justice projects are funded from the Probation Service. A significant proportion of the budget, around €16 million, goes to fund grant-aid bodies which provide services. Some of these are traditional bodies such as addiction services and so forth. There is a long list of them which I can provide to the Deputy. To some degree, some of that would be in the restorative line.
