We will probably crack open beers after what went on in the Dáil.

Mr. O'Brien's colleague, Pat Healy, told the Committee of Public Accounts that when he was in the HSE the person in Resilience Ireland, which got the contract, did not have a huge role in the terms of reference. However, Dignam found that the person involved, Mr. Crowley, was the person appointed by the serious incident management team to deal with this disclosure and he was actually centrally involved. He therefore knew about the other cases.

At the time the evidence given here was that Mr. Crowley did not have a central role. According to what Dignam was saying, he not alone knew there was a case - a disclosure - but he also knew about the other cases. For a start that evidence seems to be different. How does it happen that the person, who was centrally involved and who had knowledge of this, suddenly ended up with the contract to go and visit the 46 other cases?
