On the Minister's response that he does not foresee any changes to projected expenditure for next year, I assume there will be reliance on the rainy day fund that is in place if extra money is needed. It is good to see Fianna Fáil policy was endorsed and accepted as prudent. A 24% increase in capital expenditure is welcome. It matters in terms of context what the baseline is, where it starts and from where it increases.

Has the Minister had frank discussions with the Ministers for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Agriculture, Food and the Marine or Education and Skills about what they might need for their Departments in the event of a no-deal Brexit? Has any other Minister requested additional money in the event of a no-deal Brexit?
