In responding to Deputies Brophy and O'Connell, the Minister focused on measuring output and ensuring there is some sort of measurement for what is going in. The issue last week was uncovered by "Prime Time Investigates" of overcharging to the tune of €12 million in health by one pharmacy group. What controls has the Department put in place across government in this regard? Apart from the Comptroller and Auditor General, how many auditors are in place to examine where expenditure is going?
