Will those who have made invalid applications only be made aware their application was invalid at the time the scheme is announced or have they already been made aware that they are invalid? There were some rumours going around that potentially there would be an increase in the funding envelope subsequent to yesterday's budget. Will the Minister of State confirm whether there has been an increase in the overall budget? If there is an increase in funding, the Minister of State will be able to look after more applications.
