I welcome the Minister of State and his officials and I thank him for his opening statement. In overall terms, the €404 million budget for 2018 is up from €365 million. This is an 11% increase net of appropriations in aid. I wish to focus on the flood risk management aspect. The Minister of State has said that the extra €25 million brings that funding up from €75 million to €101 million.
