Mr. Barry O'Brien:

Clearly, the audit report has shown that at a point in time we carried out a forensic detailed examination and the audit report's findings are quite clear to all of us, but I had no knowledge - I was a senior manager at the time in the HSE in 2009 - of anybody in any other areas being paid top-ups.
