This goes way beyond the Scally report. We will not be implementing this on the back of the Scally report. It is specific. I have read the Scally report and know the recommendations inside out. Of course, it is a kick up the backside to say we have to go in a certain direction but that is what it is. This is a mammoth task. It has to be done pretty quickly. How are we to resource the organisations to do it, even from an administration perspective alone?
