I read Mr. Brady's comments in The Irish Times, but I did not read a clarification or request for clarification from him. He clearly stated that the board had never sanctioned additional payments. From January 2010, the HSE was only covering €106,000 of Mr. Kiely's salary. Presumably, the board would have had to sanction the payment of the remainder of the salary from its own funds. Mr. Nugent is telling the committee that that happened at a board meeting. There would have been a discussion and a decision at a board meeting to sanction the remainder of Mr. Kiely and others' salaries.
