Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion

Mr. Bernard O'Regan:

What happens in some organisations when they are running out of cash, and as part of their engagement process with the HSE, the HSE will advance cash to them. For example, if we were being advanced cash this month, it may be coming off our December payment. To a point it is within year but by the time one reaches the end of the year, nothing has changed because one's underlying financial position is still challenged. Effectively, one has a loan from the HSE, which has to be repaid to it. One is beginning the following year with, say, €500,000 - the number does not matter-----
