That is how it seems to me. I take it back if I am insulting Mr. O'Brien in any way. However, it seems to me that a decision was made on value for money, to use Mr. O'Brien's own words. Value for money was being provided and the rest was something the HSE could work on in the future. The HSE was fully intending to work with this body. I see heads shaking but 84 recommendations were addressed to this body to help it improve. Correct me if I am wrong, but from what I can see, the HSE had no intention of stopping this process until RTE acted and other events happened that capitulated the whole situation. For practical value for money reasons, the HSE was going to allow this body to continue.
