Mary Lou McDonald: Mr. Goulding made an interesting comment about the heavy hand of the HSE mucking things up and perhaps foisting some inadequate soul on the operation.

Mary Lou McDonald: There was no legal impediment in terms of the recruitment of the CEO. Is there anything Mr. Goulding would like to say while he is before this committee? I am thinking particularly of the other employees of the clinic who have come through all of this. Is there anything Mr. Goulding wants to say to them about this entire debacle?
