As is the case for, I am sure, every Minister who stands here, we would do more in each area if we had more funding to do it with. Unfortunately, given the funding settlement that was proposed by London, we remain in a very challenging situation. We will conclude that review. I am sure that it will be published in due course. We will continue to argue for as much money as we can for the further and higher education sector to ensure that we produce the level of skills and knowledge needed in our society to assist with the growth of the economy.
