I welcome Mr. Quinn and thank him for his presentation. We wish him every success in his new role.

I am a little frightened by the report which states that many managers outlined that they had changed roles with the service in recent times. It said some of these staff reported that they did not have formal job descriptions which outlined the specifics of their roles and the aligned responsibilities. More worryingly, some staff reported that while they had accepted new positions within the service, they did not have appropriate technical knowledge.

Six months ago, I identified that the HSE had appointed 1,100 staff without job interviews.
