Clarification of Matters Relating to Meeting of 2 February 2016

Mr. Tony O'Brien:
It used to be called CMOD. Now, it is not a one-year project; it is a multi-year project. It would mean that, as we go forward, questions like the Deputy's would be simple to answer. In a sense, what one has in systems terms is the HSE was created out of 54 different organisations. We still do not have all 54 visible in the organisation but there are about eight or nine visible organisations inside in system terms and that makes it difficult.
If the Deputy finds that frustrating, which I am sure she does, she should imagine how frustrating we find it trying to run that organisation. It feeds into issues of procurement, it feeds into issues of staffing and it feeds into all sorts of financial management-----
