I thank the Minister. I am conscious that I have only a few seconds left. I want to ask about the shortfall of €250 million. There are cumulative savings of €633 million to be arrived at by the end of this year. We can argue about the rights and wrongs of this. The Minister has also identified that she needs to make up a gap or shortfall of €250 million in terms of the Supplementary Estimates from last year being carried forward to this year. How does the Minister intend to achieve this €250 million? How does the Minister intend to bridge this gap?
