As I indicated in my reply to a previous question by the Deputy on this subject the arrangements for the actual payment of these grants are a matter entirely between the beneficiaries and the EC Commission. It would be a breach of commercial confidentiality for me to disclose information on the position of any individual companyvis-à-vis the Commission.
