The movement in subhead A5 reflects a €75 million increase from budget 2023, along with a transfer of €163 million to the National Training Fund for the post-leaving certificate programme. An increase of €75 million is broken down as follows: €32 million for the Building Momentum pay agreement; €12 million for the national development plan, NDP, capital; €2 million for adult literacy for life; €840,000 for Housing for All; €2.6 million for cost-of-living increases; and €25 million for English courses for Ukrainians. I refer the Deputy to page 13 of the Vote pack. There are two graphs that I hope will be of assistance to her. In graph 1 the baseline in 2022 is €2.946 million. It shows the various measures, which amount to €3.92 billion. Underneath that, graph 2 outlines the various measures relating to the National Training Fund. We talked about figures at a high level in my opening statement. However, taking €901 million, which is the total in graph 2, and adding it to €3.92 billion it will bring the Deputy back to the figure I referred to in my opening contribution.
