I wish to ask a final question of the representatives of the Department. As I mentioned last week, the HSE has the power to close down a dirty kitchen. What additional powers or regulation are required from a policy and legislative point of view such that we can ensure that when red flags are identified we do not have to wait forever and a day, or 15 months, for the required action? We must ensure that there are no further breaches of trust or events behind closed doors that require another unforeseen meeting such as this.
