Mr. Tony O'Brien:

In other words, the public sector-wide policy, not just for health, is that the cost of increments must be met from within and we do not have a supplemental budget, as it were, with which we could provide additional resources to either a statutory or voluntary part of the health system. That is a common issue for everyone involved in publicly-funded service.
