I ask Mr. Watt to bear with me. Of course, the Government is going to commit, in general terms, funding to public health. Of course, that is the case. Mr. Watt cannot then conflate that with him running around the place sending letters to Trinity College committing funding without any ministerial approval. The very fact that he does not get that smacks of arrogance, it must be said, and it is simply not good enough that that is how he sees the world and the spending of public money.
