It is about the current budgetary allowance for the NCSE and NEPS. It was recently reported that the NEPS is on the verge of collapse. Will the budgetary allowance include a provision with the necessary capacity to review the allocation system in light of the removal of complex needs? Will an increase be needed? I am interested in that. My question is specifically on the budgetary allowance.
