The point I am making is that there was an amalgamation of a public hospital and a private hospital under one board and the amalgamation of the roles of the CEO of the private and public hospital. At the board meetings where the public hospital was represented by virtue of the presence of the public hospital CEO, for whom the State is paying, nobody was asking about the public hospital and what would happen if something was to go wrong. Some of these developments were commercial ventures. That is what I am asking about - corporate governance.
