I note 92 trainee gardaí started in Templemore yesterday, which is welcome. There were difficulties with recruitment this year and there is underspending on that, which the Minister of State has accounted for. There are many different reasons for that to look at in the future. What is the plan for recruitment for next year to make sure we do not have that underspend? We do not welcome the underspend in any way, since we want to see gardaí being trained.
