It is important that we do not do it in bits and pieces but do it in a holistic way. The point about Tús has been made a number of times. There are no live plans to do that. We carefully monitor CE, Tús and RSS figures on a monthly basis to see if there are things we can do. Quite a few changes have been made over the past year and six months. The thinking is still that if you are finished Tús and someone wants to keep someone on, there is the CE option. CE has the training option while Tús does not. As has been the case over the past two years, we keep our options open in terms of making adjustments to schemes so that we can serve people as best we can.
