We know that. It is my last question, and the Minister did not answer it, with respect. I accept what he said. That is not in dispute. What is in dispute is that there were vacant posts on 31 December 2023 that were abolished. If the Minister is disputing the figure from the INMO, has he the HSE's figure? I am asking him a very straight question. He is the Minister. Have posts been abolished? If so, how many? If he is disputing the INMO figure, I am sure he has his own figure. Is it his contention that no posts were abolished? Does he contend that the 2,000 figure is unverified? What is the real number, from his perspective? I am not alleging the INMO figure is wrong. That is the Minister's contention.
