I will put a question whiIe we are waiting to see if Deputy Durkan or Deputy Michael Healy-Rae want to ask questions. In regard to the health Vote in 2022 the ELS was described in three components: expenditure, report allocation from central pay agreement provision carry-over and other ELS pressures and demographics. In 2023 this reduced to two components, just central pay agreement provision and carry-over demographics and other ELS pressures. In 2024 it is down to one, simply an increase for existing levels of service. Could Mr. Kinnane explain these variations? Could he explain why the detail reported in previous allocations has declined and why we only have one heading this time?
