I have a few concluding questions. I want to touch on fire and emergency services, which are a major issue across the board. Mr. Doyle mentioned the increasing expenditure last year because of HR issues, where retained firefighters had to go on strike, and I welcome the resolution of that particular issue. How many fire authorities do we have in the State?
