It is and I thank the Comptroller and Auditor General for clarifying that because I have not seen that figure. I have only been looking at the mental health figures which have broken it down by ambulance and by taxi. In some areas we are spending nothing on transferring patients by ambulance but in CHO 7, for example, €270,000 was spent last year. These are significant figures and I definitely believe it is worth getting a breakdown of the bigger figure with regard to health.
