There has been a slight increase in the next subhead, C5 Legal Aid - custody issues. There has been a slight reduction in the subhead for the Legal Aid Board – grant-in-aid but nothing significant. That also covers the budget of the Family Mediation Service. The same applies to the subhead for the Free Legal Advice Centres. The subhead for the Coroners Service has got an increase. There is virtually no change to the subhead for the Parole Board. There is an increase for the Forensic Science Laboratory and a decrease in the subhead for State Pathology Laboratory. There is a major change in subhead C12 for the compensation for personal injuries criminally inflicted. Does anyone wish to comment? Perhaps the Minister may wish to refer to that.
