Ms Patricia McCaffrey:
Our cash reserves are made up of our sterling bank account and euro bank account but also a reserve bank account, which is a pot of money we have got with regard to proceeds we have received from sale of property. We got agreement from our sponsor Department to hold that money to fund future capital projects in the South only. At the end of the 2022 financial year, it was €5.9 million. That money is ring-fenced to be used for future southern capital projects.
