Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

What I am being told is what I intuitively would have thought, that the mid-term review looked at all of those measures and how they might be delivered. The reality is that the two programmes at which the Deputy looked are the programmes under which there is the highest spending. They tend to attract the most investment. We would not limit the configuration of our budget if there was more demand in the system for the other programmes.
