Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

Currently, we are holding €14 million in interest in the patient private property accounts. The details are set out in the documentation before the committee. The bulk of the figure relates to the period from 2005 to 2008. Our task is to repay that money. Our task is to give that money either to the entitled next-of-kin or to the patient, where that is possible – many of the patients will have passed away.
