- Public Accounts Committee: HSE Report on Foster Home in Waterford Community Care Area: Discussion (2 Feb 2016)
John McGuinness: It was 17 November. Mr. Healy and Mr. O'Brien heard this at a conference. What I am asking now is, did it not ring alarm bells for them that in 2014 they were still being asked about something that happened in this home many many years ago that was just horrific? Is that right?

John McGuinness: Therefore, what kind of investigations were the HSE conducting that it did not even find that piece of correspondence?
- Public Accounts Committee: HSE Report on Foster Home in Waterford Community Care Area: Discussion (2 Feb 2016)
John McGuinness: Yes.
- Public Accounts Committee: HSE Report on Foster Home in Waterford Community Care Area: Discussion (2 Feb 2016)
John McGuinness: Where is Mr. Healy going with this answer?
- Public Accounts Committee: HSE Report on Foster Home in Waterford Community Care Area: Discussion (2 Feb 2016)
John McGuinness: That sounds great. This person, namely, the national director of quality and patient safety, was written to on 24 November 2014 and the detail of the issues was outlined. It was intimated that should the director be interested in hearing about the experience of the people in question as whistleblowers, the director should contact them.
