The Minister has referred to the advertisements in the public press and has been asked a question about the costs involved in implementing the scheme. I should like to know if he has taken into account — perhaps Deputy Ellis did — the cost of those advertisements when giving the House the figure of £160? Has the Minister included the cost of those advertisements when he replied that an application would not cost £160? He has not told us how much an application will cost and I should like to know if the costs I referred to have been considered.

I have already dealt at great length with the question of costs and I indicated that it would not be possible to give that information until certain discussions were complete. Deputy Ellis did not refer to the cost of advertisements or, indeed, to the costs at all in his original question, but his supplementary questions did. I attempted to answer them to the best of my ability although they were not strictly relevant to the question posed originally.
