Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Whistleblower Allegations: Department of Health
Mr. Robert Watt:
Absolutely not, Senator. I want to make the point to the Chair that I will not respond this morning to allegations that have been made at a private session to which I or my colleagues were not invited. It would be totally inappropriate and not consistent with anything approximating fair procedure. If the committee wanted us to be party to the discussion it had with the whistleblower last week, it should have invited us to the meeting and it did not. I am not criticising Senator Conway but I cannot be expected to respond to allegations.
