Whistleblower Allegations: Department of Health
Mr. Robert Watt:
I invite my colleagues to come in on this. The Chief State Solicitor's office is the overall agency of the State that manages litigation for the State. Individuals, through their legal representatives in the main, send in notification that they are suing the State in respect of the situation and that documentation will be provided or that documentation will be sought to support their pleadings. This information is provided. Most of the documents relate to information provided by the parties themselves.
