I thank the Minister. I will ask a few questions, if I can, before I go to the members. In respect of TB and brucellosis eradication, the Estimate for 2023 was €71.8 million. The Revised Estimate for 2024 is €57 million. That is hard to comprehend with the unfortunate rise in the reactors we have. Is any funding in place for the proposed cull of deer that is envisaged under the deer strategy programme?
