I discussed this issue earlier with my officials. We have received the funding for staff who have been transferred from the former Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to our Department. Additional money was included in that Vote for staff who did not transfer across so that has remained with the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government. We have received the allocation for the staff who did transfer.
