The point I am trying to make is I know this is a new initiative, or you are saying it is a new initiative, but this has been with us for some time. I am just wondering why. This amount of money, in terms of percentages, is very insignificant in terms of the $1 billion budget. Could this not have been budgeted for in November when the budget book was put together. I am just wondering why we could not have foreseen or forecasted this type of expenditure previously rather than coming in for a supplementary at this stage.
