I thank the Minister and Minister of State for attending and for their preparation and statements, and I extend the same to their departmental colleagues.
My first question is for the Minister of State, Deputy Higgins. With regard to Vote 39 and Vote 43, which concern Government procurement and IT services, why are the costs of these not charged back to the relevant Departments?
