Yes. In the normal cycle I would have secured agreement as part of the budget and would have come into the committee and made a statement on it. When my Estimates are drafted, particularly at sub-Department level, and all elements are clear I come back to the sectoral committee in January or February of the following year with a detailed paper. That is then discussed for quite a while.
