To date, €208 million in tax-free payments has been distributed. That gets lost sometimes when there is an ever-decreasing number of people who have not been paid and who, quite rightly, are looking to be paid. At this point the vast majority - over 90% - of the organisations that have submitted claims to the HSE have been engaged with. There were issues with compliance and the submissions. The HSE was working with the organisations to resolve those issues. The vast majority of those organisations now either have been paid or have had a positive response from the HSE. There are a small number left, which I acknowledge, and the HSE is working through those claims as quickly as it can.
