Verona Murphy: Yes, as I recall it. However, there was no company car, and I am assuming there was no option on pensions. A note on that to the committee would be fine.

Verona Murphy: Mr. Moloney mentioned the labour force and as far as I can see, there is no labour force. Every problem we have seems to be caused by the fact we cannot recruit people, particularly within the HSE. That brings me to another question. What is the role of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform when it comes to the question of public health and its budget? The health budget has...

Verona Murphy: Have we invested in it or squandered money? My definition of investment does not apply to the health service because I cannot see a result. I cannot see anything except lengthening queues. I know Mr. Moloney does not work in the health area but I am asking what is his position on this issue. We have doubled the budget and things are getting much worse.

Verona Murphy: That is the point. The Department has a role in monitoring the use and spending of the money. I ask Mr. Moloney to elaborate on that. This might take a bit of time. I acknowledge I have only one minute left but this is an important point.

Verona Murphy: I do not want Mr. Moloney to repeat things back to me. I am asking what advice the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform has given. That money is going into a black hole. The HSE is not fit for purpose. There is no yield for the billions we are putting in. I met a little boy in a wheelchair yesterday. His application for funding for a new wheelchair sat on the desk of a civil...
