No, it is not in the Bill but it is with regard to mismanagement. I appreciate that. It is total mismanagement and two fingers on both hands to every taxpayer out there. The job that was created for him in Trinity went horribly wrong, and rightly so, when the academics objected, and rightly so. Why would a man with no expertise in this area be brought in? Now they found a home for him in cancer research that is funded by the HSE. I do not have the exact details but it has to do with cancer research. When we think back to Vicky Phelan and the other ladies who had misdiagnoses and delays with cervical smears that Dr. Holohan oversaw. Now he has been appointed to cancer research.
