CHI is getting value for money from the rogue consultant narrative. I am very disappointed to hear that narrative. This is a systemic and systematic failure at board and executive level, and CHI is not fit for purpose. I am very alarmed, given what we know, that it is purported that the transition into CHI can be trusted. I think that will be a major risk event and I am glad to see that the HSE has intervened and stepped in because this needs oversight and needs to be very carefully managed. We are talking about harm to children. Again, can Dr. Goldman or Dr. Okafor tell me how many children have become infertile due to a lack of timely intervention on the urological pathway?
