There is an aspect that I am trying to get my head around and it comes back to the statement by Mr. O'Brien at the outset, namely, that the HSE got value for money for the service that it purchased. I cannot square that opening gambit. Does Mr. O'Brien believe that there were no funds from the HSE that were used in an inappropriate manner? That goes to core of this. We could read all the reports all day long, but the core of this discussion and the core of what people listening to and viewing these proceedings today are seeking from us is if Mr. O'Brien believes the HSE got value for money when it purchased these services, does he also believe none of the public funding allocated to Console was misappropriated in any way?
