Mr. Phelim Quinn:

There was one about the appointment of a fit person. I appreciate what Deputy Durkan said at the end about the involvement or non-involvement of an organisation like HIQA in the appointment of a fit person. I go back to the description of a regulatory framework and the provider organisation's adherence to the provisions within that framework. They should know from that framework who it is and the profile and competence of the people they need to appoint. To involve a regulator in that appointments process would create a conflict but what we would be doing in the promotion of the Bill with stakeholders is clearly articulating what their responsibilities are both in terms of the fitness of the provider and also the fitness of the people involved in the management of those services.
