Dr. Alan Wall:

We have taken from the institutions the costs and have examined them to some extent. We are happy they are more or less reasonable. It has been part of our recommendation that that funding is State funding. Beyond that I cannot really talk. It is not really for me. The HEA, having identified this was something we could ask the sector to respond to, reflected what the costs were to Government. That is why it is a Government decision. We are tick-tacking with our Department on it but, beyond that, we assume it is a State offering.
