Mr. Jim Breslin:

I mentioned at the outset that the development board and ourselves have led on the implementation of a range of the recommendations, including the splitting of the role between the chief officer and project director, as the Deputy sees today. Approvals were given for those and recruitment done. The two recommendations that relate to major capital projects in general, not specifically the national children's hospital, are relevant to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, which is on the record as saying it is taking them into account in how it is going to revise the public spending code. I think the Chairman referenced the fact that they have updated the committee on that and expect to conclude it shortly. As an addendum to that, I also identified earlier that as soon as we have that, at the same time as the public spending code concludes, we would intend to revise our overarching governance structures to make sure we are fully in line with the public spending code. That will streamline the bit above the development board in Children's Health Ireland, which people have commented on. I think they are fair comments.
