I compliment all of the organisations on the great work they do. First, I seek a quick response from each organisation on what is the bottom line in the budget for them. I realise they have had general discussions, but we might as well talk in plain language here. What is the bottom line for each organisation, taking account of the themes coming across at this meeting, which are child poverty linking with the overall issue of family poverty, housing, the RAS and the housing assisted payments scheme which is the new scheme in the offing? Many of the representatives come from a background where they have a strong involvement in how the process works. What is their bottom line?
