Again in respect of section 39, it was suggested that putting in place a panel of auditors might be a way to have oversight of all the different bodies that draw down various grants from the HSE, thereby providing greater detail to the HSE - and after that to the Committee of Public Accounts - in respect of how this money is spent. Does Mr. O'Brien envisage the HSE continuing to consider such a panel of auditors? Is that a way the HSE might proceed?
