Could the Minister speak, as well then, to the Public Service Training Program, which lapsed a significant amount of funds? I have heard that it is under-subscribed because it is so complicated and difficult to access that they just stay away from it, the same way that they used to stay away from trying to access the VRDP money because it was so difficult on the administrative side. It made it not worth the pain and aggravation. Could the Minister indicate the plans for that particular program area, given that they just put $250,000 into a staff retention policy? The issue of training staff and human resource development has been very dominant in the Assembly here since this Session started. Thank you.
