One second, please. There have been cases involving Áras Attracta, Grace, Savita Halappanavar and Galway, to which I will revert with the State Claims Agency in terms of what remains outstanding, and reviews are under way regarding the carrying out of inappropriate procedures, including on a member of my family. There are the cervical smear, Portiuncula Hospital and Portlaoise hospital situations. All of this is from a quick search I did this morning. There are serious failures in accountability. When memos are unavailable, it is difficult.
Dr. Holohan is on record as saying he is not for mandatory disclosure and that he prefers open disclosure on a voluntary basis. Is that correct?
