I thank the witnesses for the information provided so far. I will go back to a couple of the questions we did not have time to deal with in the first round, one of which was on developer-provided infrastructure, DPI. To pick up where the Senator left off, funding of €68.5 million had been provided from 2021 to 2025 to start getting at least some of those housing schemes upgraded and taken in charge. Has all that money been spent? Has it all been committed? How many estates and homes have been covered? I take from the response to Senator Cummins that there is not necessarily additional funding and that there is now a new assessment of the overall state of play. Mr. Gleeson might fill us in. There was an expert group before and there was a fund. Certain funding announcements were made. What has happened since then?
