I congratulate the NCBI on what it has done with the small amount of funding it got from the dormant accounts fund. Ms McGriele said the NCBI needs more funding, which is fair enough. The Cathaoirleach does not have any money but we can make recommendations to Departments in that regard. We learned last week that this is over €1 billion in the National Training Fund, which is a huge amount of money. Has the NCBI asked for funding from any Department? If so, how much has it looked for?
