Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: If we are still in a situation where our lists of assets are being maintained on a hospital by hospital basis, does that mean we have duplication of assets and the possible under-utilisation of those assets? If we had oversight by the HSE or the Department of Health of where exactly our assets are, we could sweat those assets or at least make sure that they are properly deployed and utilised...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I want to go back to the spilt milk component. We are talking about a sum of €30 million where no benefit or value has been received from its expenditure. At the time of reporting, €22.3 million was still being pursued. Is there any update on that since the time of reporting? What proportion of that can the taxpayer realistically expect to see a return on?

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: It is entirely reasonable for Mr. Gloster to say that the HSE does not want to write off any of that in the context of legal proceedings but there must be some expectation, without referencing any individual, because I am sure that is over a number of individual pots. That said, I can grudgingly accept that Mr. Gloster is not in a position to state how much we can expect to recover. In...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Is Mr. Mulvany telling me that, across multiple orders, a certain proportion or percentage of the ventilators within each batch was found not to be up to scratch? As I read 102 ventilators, I thought that must have been one consignment, we got it from one place and it was the wrong place to source it from, but he is telling me now that a certain percentage of multiple batches were found not...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Because time against is me, I want to put a quick question to the Department of Health. It was known that only an additional 326 ventilators could be deployed because ventilators do not operate on their own; they need to operate within a hospital system, with a bed and all the supporting staff around them. Yet 1,900 ventilators were sanctioned. That is quite apart from the fact that the...

Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: As I said, as regards learning, whether we use the words "misleading" or "difference in understanding" as to how they were reporting, have the HSE and the Department adequately resolved the expectations of the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform as to how this type of reporting will be done in the future? Have the HSE and the Department resolved...
