That is not correct. In budget 2021, the Minister set out in his own speech a very ambitious target of recruiting a minimum of 14,700 staff. It was in his budget speech. It was a commitment that was given and we were told they were funded positions. We are here to talk about the Estimates and the money allocated to do certain things. For budget 2021, I am asking what was the target and the number of funded whole-time equivalents who were to be recruited in that year and how many were actually recruited.
