I propose to take Questions Nos. 64 and 65 together.

Details of expenditure under the Capital Assistance Scheme (CAS) for the years requested are set out in the table below.

Year Amount€m
2019 97.7
2020 95.1
2021 (end June) 36.2

The 2021 budgetary allocation for CAS is €96 million. The cost of increasing the 2021 allocation by 5%,10% and 25% would be €4.8 million, €9.6 million and €24 million respectively.
