I guess I am not understanding something.  On page 8 of -
https://www.ripe.net/media/documents/Draft_RIPE_NCC_Activity_Plan_and_Budget_2025.pdf

you have visualizations for 5 different sections and the title states
"Overview of the RIPE NCC Budget and Savings 2025"
and the 1st section again states "Budget Savings (in kEUR)" yet in every
section the numbers for 2025 are higher than for 2024.

Can you explain what is the intention behind the word "savings"?

Thanks,
Hank
