I have many questions about the future in addition to the current situation. Let us consider the note that was prepared by the HSE for the Minister for Health and the Department only a month ago in April. It states there was no issue relating to quality.

In addition, the HSE did not see that there was a quality assurance issue involved and that the movements were so catastrophic that there were issues regarding what was going on and the laboratories. We need to break down the position in respect of the laboratories. I have a fundamental belief we need to chase the money relating to the laboratories, where the smears were conducted-----
