Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

The additional contributions which were committed to by the institutions after the Ryan report go into a fund for the expenditure by Caranua, up to a maximum of €110 million. The legislation states that any excess goes towards the children's hospital if the money exceeds €110 million. The Oireachtas decided that.
