I understand from where the Minister is coming but he is asking us to agree to the transfer of funding for service level agreements despite that we are not aware, and will not be, of the workings of the service level agreement until such time as we have sight of what is proposed in this regard. I accept the Minister's intentions and the good faith in which this amendment is being proposed in terms of catering for that eventuality. While I may not necessarily agree with it, I cannot blindly accept it either.
