The expenses, for example, include expenses for travelling to various courses. That is only one element of training. There is a very significant emphasis on in-service and ongoing training. We were discussing the Garda fleet earlier and I spoke about recruitment. In the same way that recruitment and the Garda fleet were impacted by the lack of investment due to the economic crisis, this is about rebuilding training. Of course, the associations have spoken about it.
