Mr. Angland is an expert in his own field. I am sure the OPW might be open to suggestion. It will give HIQA more money to deal with the services it provides. Does Mr. Angland believe that because HIQA is a State body, he has to answer in a particular way so as not to disappoint his line Department? He might answer that after my final question. Does HIQA have enough staff and resources to provide the safety and peace of mind to the public about our health service?
