Ms Wynne conveyed her distress over her financial situation, stating, "I would be concerned about that. I don't have current employment and I just think that if I was to account for interest, I don't know where that would leave me and my family, especially at this point in time." This indicates the challenges she faces post-election and her feelings of responsibility towards repaying the awarded sum.
Judge Gabbett emphasized the importance of adhering to the court's decisions by stating that Ms Wynne would be subject to criminal sanction if the €11,500 remained unpaid. This highlights the legal significance of the matter and the implications of non-compliance.
Ms Wynne mentioned her intent to pay the €11,500 award, asserting, "the non-payment... wasn't something I had set out to do." This reflects her situation and desire to fulfill her obligation despite her current financial constraints.
During the proceedings, Ms Smyth highlighted her right to potentially add interest, noting that Ms Wynne had failed to pay within 56 days of the WRC decision. This stresses the urgency and legal basis of the financial claim.
