I welcome the witnesses. I will try to be brief as much has been discussed. Mr. O'Brien stated what while the investigation of the agencies is ongoing, there are few sanctions open to the HSE if, at the end of the process, a matter has not been resolved. Am I correct that if following the conclusion of the process an issue has not been sorted, one of the sanctions may be a funding cut for an organisation?
