Ms Suzanne Eade:

We would use Exchequer funding. When we get our annual budget allocation from the Department it is broken down into revenue and capital expenditure. Of that revenue allocation, we are given the amount we are allowed to spend on prize money. Generally, that is up to 80% of our revenue allocation from the Department.
