Ms Michele Tait:
The HSE has estimates, which are collated through the database that we set up in 2004. The latest publication will come by the end of this year. There are in the region of 400 patients who have died from the original number. There are currently around about 1,380 people because they also get a Health (Amendment) Act card so they have special access to services, so we have about 1,380 people living at the moment and accessing services.
