Is it correct that only €2.76 million out of a total capital allocation of €67 million was spent by his Department in the first five months of the year? Will he confirm that virtually all of the €2.76 million, less €75,000, relates to the administration costs of Leader companies and that no money from this year's allocation has been spent on the ground in rural Ireland in the first five months of 2017? Will he also confirm how much of the €28 million he paid out to local authorities for work that was not done before the end of last year has been spent by them in the first five months of the year?
