So there is substantial progress. The update Mr. Gunning provided shows much progress on various wards and rooms since members visited the site. That is good to see, if we are to take a silver lining from today. That said, and to take up the issue my colleagues raised, which I appreciate is a tricky conversation for the witnesses, there is a substantial number of outstanding claims. I think the figure given in the briefing document was 2,379, at a total value of €16 million or so. When the satellite centres were opened in Connolly and Tallaght, were there claims outstanding from those two sites?
