It was across all parts of the Vote. In January and February, the health expenditure was lower than those months in the previous year and it was a bit higher in March. To break that down, we then look at where we are by hospital group and by different parts of the HSE. There is a further time lag before that becomes available to us, normally a couple of weeks. As we move into April and May, we will have detail that is of use to us regarding where we are, well below the health expenditure Vote top-line.
