I thank Mr. O'Brien and all his colleagues for coming before the committee this morning. I often say that it is a good exercise in democracy and accountability. I respect that the HSE representatives are here to give replies.

I am keen to have the last point clarified. The repayments came to 50% of the expected amount. Presumably, money was put aside in the budget for double the repayment figure at the time. Is that the case?
