On the same question, it is not credible for the Minister to say that he was not aware of the report. We need to know if the Minister for Finance came to the House with a budget while knowing there was going to be a massive overrun?

Was the Minister well aware that this overrun was going to happen and did he come to the House knowing that fact?
