I thank the Minister and the Minister of State. I have only three or four questions. They are focused on the new infrastructure division within the Department. It is a move I very much welcome. In light of ongoing, or recent anyway, value-for-money concerns, what measures are the Department and the division taking to ensure public spending remains within the agreed ceilings? I am thinking especially of capital projects. What steps will be taken to ensure lessons learned from previous infrastructure delivery challenges, such as the children's hospital, are systematically integrated into the division's approach?
