Mr. Robert Watt:

When we set out the Estimates for the period, we tried take account of demographic projects having an impact on providers in health, which is the biggest sector, as well as the likes of education. As issues have evolved over the past two years, we have made some changes to the cash ceilings. As Deputies know, additional money was provided to health this year over what would have been the case based on the numbers as formulated in 2011. There was recognition of the issue in that respect. There were also higher allocations in social protection because unemployment was higher than we thought. In as much as the Government can do, so it takes account of changes in relative demand, and that is reflected in cash ceilings.
