Yes, that was alarming.

"Salary cuts are approved, and I want you to put a strict kibosh on all unnecessary spending. We're digging ourselves into a hole, especially with all the repairs that will be required following the mutant incidents." Which, it so happened, was coming out of A&C's budget for 2083. He hadn't broken that to Aron just yet. "In fact, see if you can't get YATI to do some repair work as part of their training exercises. Free labor."

Approved. It was a beautiful word, and one she hadn't doubted would come. This was all merely a formality. Emily nod her head in understanding a small smile softening her expression, "Of course, Minister," she acknowledged, "additional cuts are already being processed, so consider it done." MLE could benefit from a little tough love and belt tightening, she wasn't one for molly coddling. Of course considering they were all in a bit of a hole, it would be prudent if all department heads went over their budget with a fine tooth comb, she could think of one or two that could benefit from it, though she wouldn't say that out loud. She wasn't one for tattling either.

Closing the folder, her palms clasping together, Emily considered the Minister's proposal. The YATI.. it would be right up their alley. It could serve to toughen one of them up, and teach another some manners... at the least. "I'm certain they'll appreciate the opportunity, I'll get them onto it right away," she agreed, though even if they didn't like the idea, they wouldn't have a choice.

And at this stage she didn't have anything to add, so it was time to take her leave. He was busy, she was busy and there was work to be done. "Thank you for meeting with me, I hope I haven't taken up too much of your time," she announced, standing and extending her hand to shake.
