I am not convinced that the HSE has faced up to all of its responsibilities here, but to be fair, if Mr. McCarthy has noticed from his perspective a shift in terms of better governance and better oversight, that is good. We have a lot on our work programme but it might be useful if we write to the director general of the HSE and ask for a detailed note on exactly what improvements have been made since the Comptroller and Auditor General's chapter on this issue was published and since the executive's appearance before this committee. We should ask what improvements in governance service level agreements and oversight have been made and that might shape the debate on this issue and affect the decision as to whether we revisit the issue.
