Further on Vote 39, what oversight did the OGP have in respect of procurement of personal protective equipment, PPE, by the HSE, for instance? Has there been a review since then?

Chapter 4 - Vote Accounting and Budget Management (19 May 2022) Verona Murphy: Mr. Moloney is aware there was an issue relating to the purchase of ventilators and that there was a spend of €80 million. There was no procurement process carried out; is that not correct?

Chapter 4 - Vote Accounting and Budget Management (19 May 2022) Verona Murphy: I would be very concerned if there was no additional inspection in respect of the procurement. I know we talk about Covid-19 and the emergency situation but that purchase in particular was outrageous from start to finish. I would like to see some form of investigation into it. The Chairman can correct me if I am wrong. It may be that the HSE has to carry it out. In the context of...

Chapter 4 - Vote Accounting and Budget Management (19 May 2022) Verona Murphy: The reason I am asking is specifically with regard to the €80 million spent on ventilators that we never got to use. We did not get the money for those ventilators back and we subsequently donated them to India and other countries. There is no value for money there from the perspective of the public purse. What savings does Mr. Moloney estimate have been made since the establishment...

After the representatives from the HSE appearing before the committee and one thing and another, we were pursuing that avenue. However, Mr. Moloney can understand my point in that regard from a value-for-money perspective.

I refer to remuneration. Is it not correct that the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform is responsible for setting the remuneration of senior civil and public servants?
