At the health committee last week, Mr. Barry put forward the argument that no one can predict and that it was impossible to know what way inflation would go. One of the members speaking to Mr. Barry was aghast that he did not have some business case or a model to determine it, but he made reference to the fact that the PwC report gave a range for inflation and that was all the board had done. Mr. Barry made reference that the PwC had given a range for inflation, but in the minutes of the most recent meeting of the board, which is online, it says the board discussed the risks associated with inflation.
