Please bear with me. My line of questioning was to ask if the only option available to the women concerned was to take court cases. Everything Mr. Breen said in that regard indicated that the answer was yes, that was the only option. The redress scheme is completely different. My understanding of redress is that one looks at all of the other issues surrounding expenses and the provision of supports. I am not sure whether one looks at liability for non-disclosure. While one could and we can argue that one should, it would equally be unfair to put it out that it will be looked at. Perhaps, Mr. Breen might answer that question because it was the logic behind my series of questions.
