Mr. Ciar?n Breen:

I absolutely agree. You will probably find that the number of claims are far less in those jurisdictions. One of the reasons I think that happens is because of the systems in the countries. With the health services at that level, there are lots of supports provided a very early stage to affect medical negligence victims in a way that we do not have in our system.
