I am totally committed to keeping our aid budget intact. I acknowledge the work of the Minister, Deputy Howlin, in keeping the focus on it in last year's budget, and I wish the Tánaiste well in doing the same this year. Will we reach the target by 2015? What cuts have been made in administration and consultancy expenses, which may have potential for reduction?
