Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for commenting on the preparation of the scheme for repayments to which he referred when responding to Deputy Rabbitte. I am not clear, however, why the Government, the Minister, the Attorney General and the HSE have mounted a full defence against a claim lodged by a family perfectly legitimately. That is a dishonest defence. If €400 million is left aside for repayment this year, why has that course of action been taken when it is absolutely in keeping with the Supreme Court decision?
