For the public, the witnesses are all on the same team and Mr. Connaghan is thanking Mr. Gleeson in front of the whole country for a suggestion that seems glaringly obvious to most of us - giving access to information. Yesterday the Minister for Health called the witnesses "pathetic", but Mr. Connaghan was not even told that this had been offered. He really needs to sit down and have a chat with people because it is embarrassing. I cannot go any further.

I request clarification on one thing Mr. McCallion said. We know that the number of women affected will increase. He talked about a further 12 audits and 46 ongoing audits. Will he clarify if that means that there are potentially a further 58 cases?
