Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

The targets are set by the Government. They are based on the advice of the Department. The Department develops them in consultation with stakeholders. It does not do so in a vacuum. It is clear that we have not met those targets in recent years, for reasons we have already discussed. It would be a mistake to resile from them, however, because we need to have that ambition.
