I wish to be associated with these remarks. Our visit was very worthwhile and I thank the Department officials who were with us and the personnel who gave of their time to brief us on the work they do. I was very struck by how professional the air ambulance service is. It certainly shows the value of these visits because one can speak all day but it is very useful to see what happens. I had a problem getting Deputy Farrell out of the cockpit of one of the aircraft.

I am a small bit puzzled about the Supplementary Estimate. The Minister stated the Supplementary Estimate is Exchequer neutral, but €9.4 million is being sought. The Minister stated it will come from another Vote. From what other Vote is it coming? Am I missing something?
