On another issue, a low-cost loan scheme was announced in February. When will that be made available? My understanding is the scheme would be worth €8 billion. According to the statistics provided in the opening statement, 36,000 applications have been made to the one-stop shop. How many of those are actually in progress and how many are waiting for information on a loan? I would imagine the availability of a loan would be a determining factor for many people who want to get their homes retrofitted.
