Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

Yes. Effectively, the receipts go to the Exchequer and then funding, more or less equivalent - with some variances from year to year - is distributed back through the Vote for transport. It is not going into the transport Vote as an appropriation-in-aid. It is a longer route to coming back to the Department.
