Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
Sometimes but not always. Solicitors operate on a no foal, no fee basis in terms of those cases so there would be costs incurred for the applicant. It would not include our fees. I would not accept that the costs are extravagant because we negotiate and we rely on the State Claims Agency to negotiate in terms of a fee settlement.
