Brian Stanley: If it is recommended by the national director, and the Department has been at this for two years, then why at this point is it not in the contract?

Brian Stanley: Tell us why the provision is not in the contract and when it will be included. I have been told by an official that it is impossible to police the contract as it stands. Deputy Munster and members of the committee have sought this provision before. I ask Mr. Watt to come back with a clear answer as to why this has not happened and when we can expect to see the clause in the contract.

Brian Stanley: To clarify, I think the question Deputy Colm Burke is asking is whether there are other cases or other areas of which Mr. Watt is aware where this may arise? Is the Department aware of any other areas? Is that correct, Deputy?

Brian Stanley: Staying on the nursing home scheme, there are now 70,000 individuals who were eligible for the nursing home scheme. The average cost of a settlement is €22,600 per claimant. If all 70,000 individuals were to be successful and if this all carried through, the State is looking at a figure of more than €1 billion. Does Mr. Watt agree with that figure?

Brian Stanley: What is the position of the Department of Health with regard to the vulnerable people who may have been entitled to redress? Is it the de facto position of the Department that it would not generally notify people or go trawling to notify people who were wrongly charged? Is that the position of the Department?

Brian Stanley: That is great. With regard to those who did not and who would fit into the category of those who would be entitled, at this point has the Department prepared a strategy for informing those people or the estates of those people that they may be entitled to compensation or redress?
