Mr. Tony O'Brien:

There are a number of steps here, a number of stages, but clearly a lot of the information that is now in the public domain came from different parts of the HSE. They were joined together by a discovery process. The joining together of those pieces of information ought to have flagged the nature of the concerns that are now in the public domain. That process did not do that. It did not happen and I am intent on finding out how we can close that off. While the ideal situation, of course, is that things do should not have to go to court, but at least when they do, the information is being assembled for that purpose ought to be interrogated to find out what are the wider issues that could be identified, and that is a process that we are engaged in.
