Can I ask Ms Eyres a question in relation to this? The HSE in Laois-Offaly, as I understand it, the Laois-Offaly part of CHO, 8, has said, and the management team have told me and others at meetings, that the plan is to provide four ten-bed units. Is it correct that there were 12 patients in Erkina House during the pandemic who had single-room accommodation, that there is only one large room that could be described not even as dormer, but as multi-occupancy where one could have two or three, and that they were all accommodated?
