Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (6 Oct 2022) Brian Stanley: There is a perception, based on feedback from staff in various hospitals, that the people who run the hospitals are the consultants.

Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (6 Oct 2022) Brian Stanley: It is in terms of overall management.

Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (6 Oct 2022) Brian Stanley: There remains a high demand for hand sanitiser and so on because Covid is still here and we are still vaccinating people. Apparently, the incidence of the virus is on the rise again, so there is a need for hand sanitiser in workplaces, schools and other buildings. Why would we throw it out or dispose of it?
