I welcome the delegates. I imagine a lot of the questions I am going to ask refer to a period before the delegates' time but they will have familiarised themselves with the accounts in any event.
The issue I start with is the big one, which is the impairment of just shy of €40 million. The board has finished its report, which went to the Comptroller and Auditor General and has now gone back to the HSE. When can we expect to find out what exactly will be written off as impaired? What is the figure?
