I thank all the witnesses for coming in today. I only have ten minutes so I might cut a witness off while answering questions. I am just noticing here that An Garda Síochána had a €9.38 million underspend on clothing and accessories, yet we know that gardaí have recently resorted to buying their own surveillance and protective equipment. Has the issue with members purchasing their own equipment been resolved?
