I am not asking the Minister about that because at issue is money the Minister will have that will remain unspent. This is voted expenditure and it could be reassigned within the Department without having recourse to a budgetary measure. I am calling on the Minister to consider the €138 million she has gained so far this year and use it to help those whom she has punished in recent years, whether through changes in the respite care grant or elsewhere.
