There was a lot of information in that. I welcome that it specifically relates to expanding baby room capacity for those between six months and three years. That continues to be a major issue in trying to access spaces. Has any analysis been done of what the €18 million might translate into in terms of places? That might not have been done. I understand the rationale behind the fee caps. Is that the same as core funding? If a service in core funding decides to expand and add a baby room or additional baby room, is it already in a fee cap with core funding? Is it the same type of system, and can we get some information on that?
