Can I say what I said to the Deputy's predecessor and to Deputy Ó Snodaigh last year? No decisions have been made in regard to the budget in December. When the decisions are made on the budget, they will be made by all the members of the Cabinet around the Cabinet table. I am not at liberty to say anything because I do not have the information as no budgetary decisions have been made. Like last year, the final details about the budget will be made when the Minister for Finance stands up to announce it on budget day in December.
