That is great. I think it was back in June last year when €220 million of additional money was put in to the HSE on the Revised Book of Estimates to pay out in compensation. The witnesses can see how bad the system is. One can keep making mistakes and we will keep paying for them. My final point is very simple. It was said that if you rip the heart out of the community, the community dies. That is what the HSE is doing.
