We are resuming our discussion with Mr. Tony O'Brien. Before we went into private session I was reading paragraph 3.18 from the Deloitte report which specifically states: "Subsequently, the High Court approved settlement terms on 27 April 2017 which included a care settlement of €600,000 for past care and €120,484 per annum for the individual’s care going forward." The committee believes that settlement of €600,000 was paid to the service provider for past care which had not been paid up to that point. That is the committee's reading of the Deloitte report and it has been read into the record. That is the agreed view of the committee.
