Dr. Una May:

That is an area we definitely consider a matter for the Government. The Government has made a decision to cease the programme and we will stand over that. We are not involved in applications and do not become part of applications on behalf of governing bodies. We believe governing bodies have the authority and autonomy to find sources of income appropriate for them but do not support anything not in line with Government policy.
