============================================================

Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I thank the Deputy for welcoming the scheme. It is a scheme where, thankfully in the last couple of days, we have seen a very significant uptick in the number of people applying. The take-up rate was quite low and has increased a lot but as the Deputy said, there is still funding in that scheme. I will talk to the Minister about the specific issue the Deputy has raised and see if it can be addressed. I am not across the detail of it but I will speak to the Minister. As the purpose here is to try to get cash into the bank accounts of small and medium businesses across Ireland, I will take the Deputy's suggestion on board.
