I wished to bring it up because it seems to have slipped through the net, pardon the pun. It is an area that could get some support. The second issue is that of the EI schemes not being drawn down. The Minister of State has told us there are considerable savings here which he has allocated to other areas which is fine. However, can we be sure that if some of these companies were not ready to draw down this money for whatever reason, they will get it in the next tranche and will not be excluded because they did not make the deadline?
