Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (19 Dec 2013) Kieran O'Donnell: How many of the section 38 organisations have come back? They are not required to give written confirmation until the end of January. I would have thought the HSE would seek written confirmation before the start of the new year. Why did it not? This has been going on for a significant period of time. Why is confirmation stretching out into 2014?

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (19 Dec 2013) Kieran O'Donnell: The charity sector does phenomenal work.
