Mr. David Moloney:

The new pay agreement, yes. The reason the Government agreed the €1 billion in non-core expenditure is that it gives us time to work with the Department of Health to see what is and is not needed on an ongoing basis. If we look at Covid expenditure from 2020 to now, it has gone from €15.4 billion to maybe €1.3 billion that was provided in 2024. That has not just been reduced; there are elements of that Covid expenditure that have gone into the Department of Health's base over time to reflect changes that are permanent. There is still a lot of discussion to be had between ourselves and the Department of Health about any pressures within the health system in 2023 and the extent to which they represent either temporary or permanent changes within the health sector.
