Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

I tried to reference this in my opening statement. I agree that one of the major challenges as we go forward is to make the organisational change flip over into cultural change within the Department but we are well embarked on that. This is where I have invited this committee's successor to hold us to account in the future. I agree that culture change is very much a part of this but that is a slower and longer process than just a transformation programme. The purpose of the structural change we have undertaken is to deliver cultural change. That is always the case in any reform of an organisation.
