Mr. Robert Watt:

There are disagreements and discussions about some elements of it and issues around the exact quantum of some of the savings in the measures, but we believe the full savings can be delivered this year and next. In the health service there is an issue about the overlap between the Croke Park and Haddington Road agreements because unfinished business is rolling over into the Haddington Road agreement. There are issues around implementation with which we will grapple, but we are confident we can make the savings and are working with the Department of Health and the HSE to ensure they are made.
