-----but that is reasonable.

The North Meath Communities Development Association has been writing to the committee for quite some time. It relates to a particular project. I believe it went to arbitration in 2004. The arbitration ended in 2008 and there was an award in terms of that arbitration. The arbitration process, as I understand it, is fairly clear. There is only a one day outing on this. A decision is reached. The legislation does not allow for any second guessing of the decision of the arbitrator on that day, therefore, the arbitrator reached the decision and then the Health Service Executive, HSE, entered into correspondence with the arbitrator and asked for clarification. I have read the results of the process of arbitration, and it was fairly clear, yet the HSE is still in dispute with the North Meath Communities Development Association.
