We are talking specifically about the surplus that is sitting there and building. Nothing is happening with it. The Department said it furnished a report to the Government last year and nothing has happened. Everything has gone through the Department. The surplus is still sitting there and being added to. People are looking for training and trying to access apprenticeships and training to future-proof their skills and nothing is happening.
