This is my difficulty. Mr. McEnery is the chairman of HIQA.

I do not want to put him in a spot when it comes to privilege but this is something that he must reflect on. It is possible that he does not have a role in it because he is an invited guest. He is, however, the head of HIQA and he attended a meeting. According to him the subsequent minutes are inaccurate. The criteria for his attendance are not clear and he cannot quite remember whether they came in the form of an email or not. Looking back now in his capacity as chairman of HIQA, does he think it appropriate that he attended a meeting for which he did not see the minutes until two years later?
