Several parliamentary questions have been tabled in respect of this matter. Does Mr. Ó Foghlú know the percentage of pay as opposed to core funding in institutes generally? I can give him the figure for Waterford. It is 87%. Does it not trouble him, as Secretary General, that such a high level of the core funding goes towards pay, even though the institutions in question are staff-heavy? Is the figure of 87% of concern to him?
