The Revised Estimates for 2014 were published yesterday and in due course the Oireachtas will vote to give the HSE €13 billion. In the first instance, the responsibility is on the Accounting Officer for the HSE - I am not sure whether it is Dr. McLoughlin or Mr. O'Brien - to ensure the money is spent in compliance with regulations. In the second instance, the onus is on section 38 organisations contracted to do this work. Primary responsibility is on the HSE which is answerable for moneys voted by the Oireachtas. Have the audited accounts for 2012 been completed for all 44 organisations?
