The women did not go to the laboratory in America. They went for a service operated under the HSE and the HSE has failed them. The HSE should settle this. The State Claims Agency should do it. If the laboratory with which the HSE has a contract has failed the executive, then the executive should sue.
Another question comes from evidence or testimony provided by Mr. John Gleeson, the programme manager of CervicalCheck. He talked about the Vicky Phelan case. It is clear that an approach was made to get Vicky Phelan to drop the case against the HSE. Is that not the case?
