What I mean by that is that if there is a cut, he will make sure there is a disproportionate cut outside the farm gate, which is the part that goes to the Minister's Department, in other words Leader, rather than the inside the farm gate. It is a tricky equation. It is not easy to square but the Minister is the small one here and the money goes through the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
