Public Accounts Committee

Appropriation Accounts 2021
Financial Statements 2021: HSE
Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health

9:30 am

Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

It was not immediately at our fingertips because there was not a centralised register. However, the central clinical engineering database was immediately at our fingertips because that was and is maintained. It is just not an asset register in the sense of being a financial system asset register. It was a reliable list, centrally maintained by a clinical engineering team, of ventilators and as I said, it proved to be 98% accurate.
