There was €124 million spent on agency for nursing and over 1,000 vacant posts. To move on, in the interest of time, I want to talk a little about voluntary hospitals. The Minister's briefing documents state one of the overall drivers of this Supplementary Estimate is the non-recurring funding for voluntary hospitals and an additional €40 million. At our meeting two weeks ago, we talked at length about voluntary hospitals and the implementation of an integrated financial management and management system. Again, I reiterate my support for the roll-out of that. The HSE-funded hospitals must be fully aligned with HSE-run sites, particularly when it comes to financial reporting, so I support that. Has the additional €40 million come with a stipulation that all voluntary hospitals must implement the IFMS?
