I have a simple question on the Department of Health grant €14.156 billion for 2017, which is shown in chart 6 on page 123. I want Mr. Breslin to send the committee a note tying that figure to the Department's appropriation account because it is not possible for us to do so. I doubt the Comptroller and Auditor General could drag that figure back to the appropriation account. Perhaps I am doing Mr. Breslin an injustice in this regard but it is not transparent from the appropriation account as to how that €14 billion arises.
