Seán Fleming: We will hold over this correspondence for now. We are not publishing it for now. We will put SBCI on our work programme and then decide how to deal with the correspondence and its accounts. Its accounts are in. I saw them over the summer.

Seán Fleming: I accept that but I respectfully disagree. The first letter refers to the letter we wrote seeking information on the number of jobs supported by SBCI. The number of jobs the loans supported is exactly what I wanted. SBCI gave us the total number of employees in the organisations in which particular projects were supported. In fact, it specifically did not answer the question.

Seán Fleming: They seemed very vague on how they do it.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (26 Sep 2019)
Seán Fleming: We will have the letter we wrote to the organisation circulated. We did ask for the jobs it supported, not the number in the companies. We were given an answer. It is illuminating to read SBCI's opening sentence. I was quite specific in what I was looking for when we sent the letter.

Seán Fleming: It is a useful discussion. We will not note or publish the information at this point. We will hold it over and include the organisation on our work programme. We will come back to the correspondence at that stage. The next item of correspondence is No. 2343B, from the Department of Children and Youth Affairs, providing information requested by the committee on the number of active...

Seán Fleming: We will contact the State Claims Agency and-or the Department directly. We had this before with claims against hospitals and paediatric units. The agency does not want to identify a particular region because it might be unfair to the region in question if there happened to be a large number of claims in a certain year. If the information on the public record is overanalysed, it could give...

Seán Fleming: It is very difficult. There have been many problems managing that. We will ask and see if we can get the breakdown of that between claims by staff or claims by children in Oberstown. We will see what information emerges. The agency will know not to compromise its own defence when supplying information. It probably thinks I have overanalysed what it gave us already and might regret it....

Seán Fleming: It is also the case with inpatient and day cases. It is high in both categories. Given that I heard the Deputy mention that topic yesterday, I thought I would follow through on it.

Seán Fleming: They are shaded in blue. The number of consultants included in this particular survey – they only do so many every quarter – was 3,026. The figures along the bottom are 451 and then 491 under day cases. Let people study the document. We will note and publish it in any event. If members want to study it in detail, they can use the printed version. There are too many...
