I would like to ask a supplementary question in regard to the abolition of the Department of the Public Service. Can the Minister tell us what Department, if any, are co-ordinating the efforts of the Government to achieve their targets in many areas, including a reduction in the numbers employed in the public service?

Surely that is a separate question, Deputy?

I submit that this question specifically mentions the systems in place now that the Department of the Public Service have been abolished.

I submit to the Deputy that I have given the reply but in reply to the question she asked, the Department concerned is the Department of Finance.
