I listened to the Deputy and others last year when they said that I would not spend the money allocated to my Department. I compliment the Department in that regard. Some 99.3% of that money has been spent, despite the fact that the Deputy and others spent the year sending out statements saying that I would not spend that money. I provided some funding to LIS because I wanted to get road works done under the scheme.
