I thank the Minister for his overview of the health budget. Last year was an annus horribilisin regard to the health budget and this year will probably be the same. In regard to some of the positive news on the women's health task force, it is very welcome to see funding in regard to the expansion of the endometriosis service in Tallaght, which is positive.

To clarify the financial position, does the €1.074 billion capital expenditure include expenditure spent on personal protective equipment, PPE, last year in regard to the pandemic? In fact, the Minister might just explain what the capital expenditure was for.
