I support the recommendation that we consider whether there is an oversight issue, not least because wearing the committee's other hat, issues arise in terms of the tardiness of some of the HSE's responses to the Ombudsman over the years. I do not suggest for a moment that is relevant in this case but tardiness in the HSE's response might arise again, and if that is the case, I would agree that we should examine the possibility of there being an oversight issue that extends beyond the case of the individual in question, which is clearly an unfortunate one as otherwise the petitioner would not have written to us.
