I propose to take Questions Nos. 373 and 374 together.
A budget totalling €1,046,861,000 has been allocated to FÁS for 2007. This budget ensures that overall numbers on schemes are maintained at 2006 levels. I am satisfied that this level of funding is more then adequate to support the ongoing requirements of FÁS in the delivery of its labour market programmes.
