Vote Management and Budgetary Situation in 2012: Discussion with Department of Health and HSE

6:30 pm

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

I understand Deputy McDonald's position, which she has articulated clearly. I think we have articulated equally clearly our understanding of the position. One of the challenges of doing this live is that we can each express our opinion of what might or might not happen, but typically in this forum we are looking back at what actually did happen.
