I am surprised Mr. Mulvany does not know this because this is even included in the Comptroller and Auditor General’s report of September 2011, which noted that a hearing in this area was awaited.

As I mentioned, the 2012 financial statements provided for €8 million in the 2013 HSE budget to refund repayments to these outstanding claims. A total of €8 million was allocated again in 2014 and €4 million was allocated in 2015. Will Mr. Mulvany inform the committee if these were the actual amounts of money that were actually paid?
