I am concerned about the policy implications of the fact that we have had to suppress a director role in another HSE department. There is a hypocrisy between the policy and the legislation. Do we not face a significant issue, whereby we could lose multiple HSE directors or similar roles if multiple CEOs decide to avail of that entitlement, which is their right? Policy is meant to be the driver but instead we are going to have to do something different.
