Three weeks is still high. Revenue at 11.4 represents two weeks. The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport is at 11.2. I ask the secretariat to take a note of those that are above average and we can put them to officials from those Departments when they appear before the committee. We need a response from them when they appear. There are significant variations. For example, the Department of the Taoiseach is at 3.5 and yet Revenue is at 11.4. How do such variations arise? There might be a reason, but I would like to know the reason.
