Sorry, Chairman. What is incredible is that this report was finalised years ago. It is collecting dust in the HSE. I find it extraordinary that a report has been commissioned, public money has been used to document that report, and the head of the HSE has not actually read a report his organisation commissioned which, potentially, has very serious recommendations and findings when it comes to the care of children. That is what I find extraordinary. How can Mr. O'Brien commission a report and park it for years? To say the least, if the findings were useful and important with regard to care of vulnerable people in this country, why would he not read it?
