Our tax revenue is high. There are more people back at work. By the end of this year, there will be more at work than ever before in the history of the State but we must plan for the future. We also have, which the Sinn Féin Party has not acknowledged, a deficit that we cannot allow to grow. The importance of the rainy day fund is that we plan for our future so that we can invest for our people. I would be happy to have the Minister come to the House.

I will not repeat what I said on Irish Water.
