What I find most distressing as Chairman of the Committee of Public Accounts, and people will agree with me on this, is there is a figure of €2 billion that we now know, at the end of 2016, that is ultimately due. That includes the legal aspect. So there is €2 billion due to be paid. Most of it is for people who have suffered medical negligence cases. Is that correct?
