Mr. Tony O'Brien:

I should preface it by saying that it is a bit like the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It will never be fully repainted and is an ongoing constant grind. The work of our own internal audit committee and various HSE national directors, the contribution of the Committee of Public Accounts and the public response to some of the issues exposed in the CRC, which was a very different organisation then to the CRC of today, have changed the environment around compliance with policy and the appropriate use of public funds. The Console affair also played into that to some extent. The HSE has put in place additional procedures to help move things along but I do not think there will ever be room for complacency. My colleague, Mr. John Cregan, as the committee may recall, was the person we put in as a special administrator-----
