It is not the way to store a machine of that kind and it might be important from the point of view of €29,000 being spent on an ongoing basis on scans.

I want to recap on what has happened. With regard to cost of claims to the HSE, without mentioning any names, can we get a list of them? We mentioned the legal fees earlier and they ran at €44 million this year and last year. Can we go through the procurement process and how many firms were involved? I refer in particular to the Waterford situation and the cost there.

A single financial management system was mentioned. I pester the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform about this issue all the time. It has been cropping up at these meetings since 2011, with no resolution in sight. Perhaps we can get a note on an update.

In cases like the Canning case, where reports and legal fees were involved, is it in order to ask for costs in regard to these reports? The document refers to various types of reports sought. I am interested in knowing how much these reports cost.

I posed the question on St. Patrick's in Kilkenny, the respite house and the opening of clients' accounts. I tabled a parliamentary question on this but the HSE must respond. Perhaps the HSE will examine the issues here.

There was an overview of section 38 bodies. Can we get an overview of the section 39 bodies? We went through the history to it before. There is a figure of €8 million for retired staff coming back and perhaps we can get a breakdown of that and the skills it covers.

Generally, a lot was asked today and the HSE committed to providing the facts and figures. Is it fair to ask for a timeline and is it possible to get it within a couple of weeks? Does the HSE have this information to hand? When the witnesses leave here, there is a whole lot of things to do but I am asking in the context of the information we have asked for.
