I completely understand that we need to minimise the exposure for the State. I know each of the claims is being gone through and that many of them are being disputed. However, when there is €500 million worth of claims, some will succeed. I am not talking about the HSE undermining the role of the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board in dealing with those claims. Mr. Mulvany tells us that the allocation will be sufficient for this year. Does he foresee it being sufficient next year because we ultimately have to get this hospital finished and opened? Does the HSE project that there will be a shortfall next year?
