The Deputy has raised an important point because traditionally, over the decades funding came only from what used to be called the Department of the Environment and Local Government. I am not arguing against what happens now but funding comes from a number of Departments. One of our recommendations, when we come to putting a report together, might be that the Secretary General be notified of issues such as that and there be crossover. Would that be helpful to the Deputy?
