The next section relates to social inclusion, which is referred to on page nine of the analysis of estimates. This refers mostly to substance misuse and the treatment of those with substance misuse issues. That is one of the metrics used here. I did have some input into looking at homelessness and drug addiction and the duel diagnosis of drug addiction and mental illness, and I understand that the allocation of money has gone from €2 million to €6 million in this regard. Perhaps the Minister could speak about that.
