I welcome Mr. Breen and Ms Foley to the committee.

Vicky Phelan is a neighbour of mine. I know the type of person she is and what she has gone through. The briefing note given to the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, on 16 April states the State Claims Agency had advised it believed the issue of non-disclosure would fall or be dismissed and, therefore, there was no exposure for the State. Why did the agency give that advice?
