Mr. Graham Doyle:
It relates to the number of projects that came through from the local authority sector that year. Very significant funding is available for that scheme. I am trying to find my notes on it. I believe that approximately 2,250 retrofits were carried out in that year. The intention would have been to do something a bit higher than that. The target was closer to 3,000 that year. The uptake has since improved.
