Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Engagement with Secretary General of the Department of Health

Mr. Robert Watt:

The Deputy is saying that I made a commitment. I set out a letter of intent that the Government was committed to enhancing research funding across the university sector. We put a number on it. That number would have to be finalised. The details had to be figured out, as everybody knows, in the normal course of events through the Estimates process to discussions with the Minister. Of course, subsequently, as the Deputy is aware, the Government has increased the funding for the Health Research Board-----
