I think it is still in the delegates’ own sphere. I respectfully suggest that they ask the internal auditors to go back over the entire period, even though the organisation is said to no longer exist. I very strongly suggest that the delegates consult immediately the current member of staff who spent a period in control of or in a senior position in Console to see what they have to add to this story.

Other Deputies mentioned that a person contacted the Minister of the day to inform him there were issues and concerns. On the back of that, did any personnel in the Minister’s office or the Department of Health make contact with anyone in the HSE to ask whether he or she had anything to say about the briefing the Minister received and about which he was concerned?
