I am not asking Mr. Tony O'Brien to comment necessarily on Government policy. I am asking him a management question. He is in charge, not only to account for the numbers - the pounds, shillings and pence - but also for the good governance and management structure of the HSE. That is his job. I am asking him in respect of his duty of care to the staff within the service. He acknowledged that he has such a duty. I would have thought logically, therefore, he would have a view and that he would express that view, and if he is not going to express it at committee, that he would certainly express it to the Minister.
