One of the issues that has been addressed is the gap between the budget and what will be needed. We talked about agency staff, overtime and procurement as some of the areas that are being looked at. I listened to the language. Language always tells you something. For example, the phrases "it is an ambitious programme" and "it is challenging" jump out at me. A supplementary budget is what that adds up to for me. Does the HSE have oversight of the integrated financial management system, IFMS, which money was provided for in recent years? It should have been provided many years ago. Where is that system at this stage and when will it be fully delivered?
