One cannot spend the money for these schemes on the day an application comes in. There is an ongoing commitment and certain applications will come through next year relating to phase 1 while certain others will relate to phase 2. One cannot separate the two — we are not buying sweets but major building projects and they take time. It is a multi-annual programme which requires continuity.
