Did I hear that rightly? There should be approximately €200 million for projects under Leader. Is the Minister telling me that, to date, all that has been approved is approximately 10% of that, €20 million, with all that has been paid out being €933,000 of the allocation for projects of more than €200 million? Will the Minister confirm that I picked up the figures rightly? The Minister read it out very quickly and stumbled over some of the words. It was hard to grasp fully what the Minister was trying to tell me. Am I right that €933,000 is all that communities have got out of this great scheme? Perhaps the Minister will tell me what has been the total administrative expenditure under Leader to date.
