I know that we are under time pressure, but I am very uncomfortable with the statement made about the clinical directors. In her submission Ms O'Shea uses the words "responsible for the deaths of many children". I appreciate that she shows a lot of passion in her campaign which I fully respect, but I am extremely uncomfortable with the statement made and will tell her why. I have no specific knowledge of the composition of the board or the manner in which the members were chosen, nor am I aware of their qualifications, only that they satisfied the requirement to be given the job.
