============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I thank the Minister of State for his reply. To what degree does he foresee the Government's ability to monitor the various Departments' demands in the first instance as well as the possible shortfall in available resources in view of the fact that changes in the economy, market and so on may take place in the meantime? Is it possible to identify accurately the kinds of need each Department will have?
