Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (16 Jan 2014) Mary Lou McDonald: -----or to swing around, is that the roles of group CEO and CEO of St. Vincent's University Hospital will not be occupied by the same manager. I want to tease this out a little. Am I correct in thinking that this will mean, in practical terms, that there will be a stand-alone CEO for the public hospital, which is what the HSE expected all along? Will that be done? Am I correct that this...

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (16 Jan 2014) Mary Lou McDonald: I accept that. How does that sit as a concept with the HSE? Does it not continue to cause a difficulty for the following reasons? In that scenario, the roles would be separated and this would mean the group CEO could continue on his current salary. However, would it not also mean we would have a publicly funded entity with its top management answerable to A. N. Other structure that is...

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (16 Jan 2014) Mary Lou McDonald: So you do not envisage a difficulty with the chief executive of a publicly-funded hospital being answerable outside of the HSE framework to a group chief executive. Is that the case?

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration (16 Jan 2014) Mary Lou McDonald: I have a final point for Professor Whelan, and Mr. Jermyn may have something to say on this as well. It obviously became apparent to the group that there were compliance issues and that the group was not in compliance in respect of a small number of employees. Did you approach them, either individually or collectively, at any stage and put it to them that this was an issue or a difficulty?...

The professor has told me that he spoke to you and that he interacts with you regularly, that he addressed the issue of the top-up portion and asked you to forego it. I simply want to know how you responded to that request.

But I ask you to answer the question, if you will. The professor has told me just now - you heard him - that he approached you and you had a conversation around the top-up portion. He just told me that he asked you to set aside your top-up. What did you say? Did you say "No"?
