I have never hidden the fact that we have made pay savings, as the Deputy knows, but we have redirected the savings we have made.

I presume that is what he would do, but I have made sure we have handed back the minimal amount in recent years. I heard the Deputy over the summer months. He should go back and read the Blacks of the proceedings at the Estimates meetings of the committee-----
