It often happens that people emerge from the courts and the HSE issues an apology. There is supposed to be an open disclosure approach. Obviously the State Claims Agency is the one that deals with it. On the financial side, where are the settlements referenced when they are made? I presume they are referenced in the budget of the Department of Health. In terms of the last ten years, can the HSE give us a report on when the claims crystalised, the amount concerned and any learnings? People do not want financial settlements and did not want the injury to happen in the first place.
