Text
The focus that I inherited was entirely on the Southern Trust, so that is why we pursued that to its conclusion. Well, it may not be the conclusion; obviously, the Ladies with Letters and others are considering potential next steps, and that is, of course, their right. I am aware that there are women in the Western Trust area who also had issues. I will refresh myself on those situations, because I believe that there is no direct read-across to what happened in the Southern Trust. Sinéad McLaughlin wrote to me to ask whether I will meet some of those women, and I signed off on that today, so we will find a diary date to make that happen.
