Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Proposed Appointment to University Research Post: Department of the Taoiseach
Mr. Martin Fraser:
I contacted the Secretary General because I had had a conversation with the Chief Medical Officer. The Secretary General is, of course, the line manager of the Chief Medical Officer. He is the head of the Department for administrative purposes. Quite appropriately, I rang the person whose responsibility these matters were. He told me he was dealing with it. I did not ask him to do this or to look after it. Other representatives, not the Deputy, have said this. That is not what happened. I rang the person who is responsible for these matters and he told me he was dealing with it.
