I am having a little difficulty getting my head around the matter. After a quick perusal, it seems that if changes were made in respect of programme A, it would seriously impair our engagement with Asia. Change in respect of the second programme would have serious consequences for recipient organisations. In respect of programme C, the funds are already oversubscribed. With regard to the fourth programme, cuts would jeopardise key interests of the State. There is an expenditure ceiling. Is there a circle to be squared? Is there money to be saved that has not been saved? Can the Department not identify the savings that it needs? I may be misreading the documentation.
