I am concerned that the organisation was set up in a way that those who might have been the most vulnerable, if that is the word I should use, did not have access to the fund. I am not saying someone's depression is more worthy than somebody's sore foot. That is not what I am assessing and I do not believe it is within our remit. I am trying to find out if the money went to the most vulnerable. Were the systems in place where the most vulnerable people had access to the fund or was it just the smartest people, the people in the know or the people who met the right solicitor who had access? How was the money-----
