Mr. Bernard Gloster:

I will, of course. I am happy to comment on that. To be fair, that report was not just on Limerick. It was about three hospitals. When I came into this job, I wanted to look at how we manage additional waiting list activity and plans in the best interests of the use of public money. Both the Secretary General and I agree it is important that we look at those things and are transparent about them. Secondly, the report the Senator is referring to, which was published last Monday, was published proactively by us. It was not dragged out of us or anything else. I think that is important. The third thing which is important to say is that while it suggested problems and difficulties, there is nothing illegal or untoward in it. I want to be careful about that. I would be a little critical and push back at my colleagues in Limerick to say that one does not actually have to have a fully operating procurement function to do procurement. Public servants do procurement every day. There is a good action plan response to it. My colleague has gone to Limerick to assist the hospital with that and might want to comment on it.
