I propose to take Questions Nos. 27, 62, 66 and 145 together.

The matter raised in these questions is one for which my colleague the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment has responsibility. I have brought the questions to her attention, and she will communicate with the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
