In my second round of questioning I will focus on the HSE capital and estates division responsible for the delivery of projects included in the HSE capital plan. One of the issues is the delay in the delivery of projects. In 2020 there was €833 million to deliver what is a substantial annual capital programme. On current staffing, if we take for instance the CHO 2, the Galway estates team and the technical team that is there to deliver projects, there are only seven technical staff. Do the witnesses believe the number of consultancy services we use and HSE staff within the estates and the building division is adequate to deliver on the annual capital plan?
