Ms Fiona Brady:

I absolutely understand. It was upsetting for us in the NTPF to understand this happened in several hospitals. Apart from the adherence to the MOU, it is my intention now, following my national assurance audit, that if there are any further NTPF initiatives in relation to insourcing - insourcing only - I will write directly to the CEOs and the general managers of those organisations to ask them, before we approve in principle that agreement, to provide me with further assurance that this is all being done out of core hours and in line with the national financial regulations.
