I am sure I am not the only one in the room who is quite concerned about what our attention has been drawn to. If it were not the case that the HSE was coming before us next month, I would probably be expediting my concerns. In the past, we wrote to that body in advance of its visits to let it know some of the issues that were going to arise in order to ensure that the relevant information would be forthcoming. I propose that we start to compile that list now with regard to the HSE and that the matters which have been outlined will form the basis of the start of that process. I propose that we are given an opportunity to contribute on whether the HSE wants to answer in advance or that we can follow up with it afterwards. I am open to other members thoughts on that. With regard to many off these issues, we need to make sure the HSE can answer detailed questions on the day. I would also include IT procurement and software included, particularly if there are any projects in respect of which questions remain. Really, I want to ensure that we can all make the most use of the HSE's appearance before us next month.
