Brian Stanley: We are telling the public that there is more money going in, and we are going to and fro and back and forward. They are saying that is all fine but they still cannot get the service. Those are the four questions. Will Mr. Watt come back to me on those?

In 2018, the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform made the decision to refuse funding for the electronic record system until after the children's hospital was completed. Mr. Watt, in your role as Secretary General of that Department, was that the correct decision to make?
