Mr. John Kinnane:

The other issue is that if we look at how the performance budgeting process worked, it was initially rolled out on a pilot basis in a number of Departments. The key lesson, when looking at how this was implemented in various other countries, is that the Departments must take ownership of it themselves. The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform is trying to drive the point that we can embed this in Departments, roll it out initially on a pilot basis and then take in more Departments in order to get full coverage.
