Mr. Barry O'Brien:
The public hospital will have its own CEO at the correct pay rate. As I said earlier, we will take the necessary steps under our service level arrangement. St. Vincent's has said it will take the necessary steps to appoint a public interest sub-committee of its board to ensure everything is appropriately managed. There is no question, therefore, that the public interest, and the €195 million in public moneys, will not be properly safeguarded and reported.
