Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: No. Most people who work in a situation like that know that that is not the proper way of doing it. It seems to me that when it is Government money being spent caution is thrown to the wind and it does not matter because it is not real money. I think that is really wrong, and I think it should not have taken so long to start the process, so that we are only getting it right now. Can I go...

Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: Memos are sent to HSE staff all the time about holidays and about overtime and it gets out there directly. It does not take years and it does not take several reviews, so I think it is something that needs to be looked at.

Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: If one was in private industry, one would not order something from a company unless there was a purchase order number. If it was a privately run company it would have been shut down by now because of the amount of money that has been wasted.

Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: May I ask about the private health insurance? I know it was touched on earlier. Can I ask which hospital is owed the largest amount of money and what exactly the HSE is doing to recoup that money? I ask because I know Mr. O'Brien said that there was €150 million outstanding. Again, if that was a business it would have closed by now. I work with excellent people in the HSE - I have...

Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: When there is a cashflow issue, it does affect it. If there is not cash coming in that is supposed to be coming in, there is a cashflow issue. Beds have to be closed on occasion because a hospital runs over its budget or whatever, so it does affect it.

Health Service Executive Financial Statements 2013 (23 Apr 2015) Gabrielle McFadden: What is the advantage of paying companies €38 million for cleaning compared with the old days when the HSE employed domestic staff to do it? In the old days there was no MRSA, and there were matrons going around with white gloves checking whether everything was clean. There was not as much MRSA and talk about hospital bugs as now. I accept that things have changed.
