Mr. Stephen Mulvany:
We track that money every month. The key point is that we do not allocate money to services until they confirm that the post has actually been recruited for. If the post is not recruited for, we hold the money, which is recurring and available for the next year. If it is put to a once-off use in agreement with the Department, that does not take it away from being available once staff are recruited.
