Mr. Tony O'Brien:

In most instances the organisations maintain they are coming from privately generated income in the institutions concerned. That is a difficult issue because, if the institution is substantially funded from the public purse, it is difficult to be absolutely clear where the funds are coming from. Each of these cases is working its way through to a conclusion. In many instances the matter is already resolved. In other instances there are residual issues leading to straightforward resolution by the end of this month or, in some cases, to an examination of assertions of legal entitlement. These are coming to a conclusion as we speak.
