As I have said, although I cannot take it as certain, it seems that in all these instances the HSE is doing the right thing. It wanted this report to be published. It wanted the misuse of public funds to be investigated by the Garda but CHI was not on board with that. CHI has opposed publishing the report in full and it is still not published. Only a sanitised and editorialised, if that is the word you want to use, version has been published. The head of the HSE is not resiling from his view that an anonymised version of this report could and should have been published. Here we have a situation whereby the head of the HSE has a fundamental difference of opinion with CHI on this point. CHI chose not to publish the report. Does Ms Nugent's view remain that it should not be published?
