Training is reflected in subhead A1. The training of recruits is captured by that figure. There is a very significant input with the new recruits. I will come back to the Deputy on the detail of that. I will get the budgetary explanation for the increase in the middle of last year. It is a stable figure if one compares the beginning of the year but there was an extra allocation for particular reasons and I will come back and give the committee a detailed explanation for that. I assure the Deputy there has not been a reversal in the training situation. It is important to know.
