That sounds great. This person, namely, the national director of quality and patient safety, was written to on 24 November 2014 and the detail of the issues was outlined.

It was intimated that should the director be interested in hearing about the experience of the people in question as whistleblowers, the director should contact them. However, there was no reply; nothing; zilch.

I have a last question before calling Deputy McDonald. The HSE had a group of three people within the South Eastern Health Board who made the decision to leave Grace in that care. I believe that is what Mr. O'Brien said.
