I welcome the officials before the committee. The work they are doing is extraordinarily important. The hopes and dreams of an entire generation are on their shoulders. As a 24-year old, the youngest Deputy in Dáil Éireann and the youngest Member of the Oireachtas, I am extremely concerned about the pace of delivery. How much of a surplus was there in the previous year's expenditure in terms of what was unspent?
