Mr. Niall Egan:

We have 90 schemes. Working with the PSPR template and our colleagues in the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform, it is about finding that balance. We are limited in size like every Department is and we have other metrics we monitor ourselves for individual schemes. Trying to bring it up a level and trying to make it appropriate in terms of the high-level, overarching view of the different broad programme levels means that the output targets and the impact targets are set at a high level. We are absolutely happy to engage with the committee on its views, and I would be interested to hear its views and suggested ideas in that regard. The management board does review this in the Department every year and signs off on it. That process usually takes place in November, before the Revised Estimates are published, so we have between now and before November, to be honest, to feed into that process.
