Mr. Liam Woods:

I am responding to the Chairman's question on what is happening. There is a system being installed which offers the prospect of improvement in the overall process. That is under way. There have been active processes and there is one other under way at present both to support and pursue the signing of claim forms within each of the hospitals. The comments made by the chief executive officer about the Labour Relations Commission's recommendations are very important in the context of getting timely signing of those forms.
