I have one last quick question. In respect of the helpline and its continued existence, Mr. O'Brien said that it costs more than the funds that were being provided for its running. The service has now been transferred to Pieta House. Has there been a full appraisal of the real cost of providing this service, with real checks and balances, against what was indicated to the HSE, and will it now be funded to the true cost and the process involved in ensuring its continued existence to its full, optimum requirement?
