I was really disappointed. They both added a great deal of value. Professor Keane chaired an advisory group that reported to Ms Magahy and Ms Magahy led on the electives. I asked her to lead on the waiting list plan, where she did excellent work. She led on the 112 projects, including Healthy Ireland. Recently, she and I had an exciting meeting about something we will launch after the budget, funded for this year, around tackling health inequalities in the community. She and I were doing a great deal of work together and I was very sorry to see her go. However, it is important to say that we all move on from jobs. She has added extraordinary value and has done her country a great service in the work she did in that office.
