I thank Deputy Curran for raising this matter and acknowledge that he raises it quite consistently regarding the family to which he refers. I also acknowledge that this is a time of huge anxiety for the families impacted and worried about their children. I spoke directly to the new Director General of the HSE yesterday about this to inquire as to the current position. My understanding is that a decision will be delivered shortly. We are genuinely making progress on this matter. I do not want to say any more that could jeopardise this situation but there is a new offer from the company, of which the Deputy is aware. The HSE needs to assess it, and it takes two to close a deal, but I really want this to be resolved quickly. The HSE is aware of our collective view on the matter.
