Deputy McManus's point is far more important than the Minister may realise. The chief executive officer of the HSE is covered by codes of conduct and by the ethics in public office legislation but his advisers are not, even though they would have as much say and as much authority in the way policies are formulated because of their expertise which is also the reason they are acting as his special advisers. They will not be covered but he is.
