Ms Lucy Nugent:
We redacted a version of the report to see if it would make sense to our stakeholders. It did not make sense. We wanted to go further and state what we did on receipt of the report. The 32 recommendations, bar two, have been closed and can only be closed when we move to the new children's hospital. We are trying to provide further assurance and not just a blacked-out and redacted report. It was primarily a HR report. The 45 staff who participated and were interviewed did so on the basis of confidentiality so they could be open and transparent, and give the information we needed to find. From that perspective, we stand by our decision.
