On the congregated settings, I answered a recent question by the Deputy, which may have been a Topical Issue matter in the Dáil. We are committed as a Government and it is in the programme for Government. At present, there are approximately 2,000 people who have to be decongregated. There is provision within the budget to support this. This year alone, even with Covid, 66 people moved out from congregated settings. It is a priority. As the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman, has said, we met representatives of Independent Living Movement Ireland, who spoke about the value of the personal assistance. We have taken that on board and it is also being provisioned for within the budget as part of our service level agreement.
