Ms Laverne McGuinness:

We just heard today about both the €125,000 and the €40,000. It has not been confirmed in any correspondence to us that that amount is being paid. What our correspondence says, even though we have asked for the remuneration levels, is that with effect from 1 October the CRC would be compliant with the salary scale we set out, which was the equivalent of a local health manager, at €83,000.
