-----for the CCPC. As I outlined in my opening contribution, it is more to protect the independence of where it is coming from. I accept and share the Deputy's concerns regarding some future government because this Government has proved in the past number of years that we have been resourcing the CCPC and the CEA in recognition of their increased powers and additional responsibilities. If there is a case where a future government decides not to adequately resource those bodies, it is bound by the EU and a complaint could be made there if such bodies were not adequately resourced. I do not envisage that happening.
