It was an allocation from within the Department of the Taoiseach's budget so our budget actually went down compared to what it was in 2017. Our budget in 2018 was lower so it was from within the existing envelope of the Department which will be lower again so we are probably one of the few Departments in Government that is still reducing its budget every year.
