Society, really, is represented by a delicate balance between government, the marketplace and civil society, which includes the voluntary sector and requires strength in all three. I have no doubt that the government listens to itself and I can testify that we don’t dictate the market. When will the Minister start listening to the voluntary sector and the civil society when they’re speaking out on this issue and making demands that are clear and consistent like multi-year funding and establishing an office of capacity in the Executive?
