I get that process and everything else. Regarding the Department of Health, there is a reference to €708 million. Last year, the figure was €896 million. Would that be communicated by the Department to the Minister for Health? When would it be done? Considering that we have had high inflation, and because it had increased so much, the figure just does not add up. You would imagine it would be higher, if anything. Looking at the inconsistencies over the years regarding ELS, things seem to be all over the place. You would imagine it would be fairly static, but increasing.
