Ms Oonagh Buckley:
I put in the request for the staff I thought I needed which will bring us to about 300 for this year. We are going to need to upscale. That is a big increase, it is about a 50% increase in the staff of the board. Beyond that I expect that I will probably be coming back to the Department in due course saying we need smaller numbers, more bespoke skills, but getting the board to around 300 is the starting point.
