Health Service Executive: Financial Statements 2020 (26 May 2022)

Brian Stanley: I am not inside the system but outside the system looking at it, meeting middle management, meeting the witnesses present and looking at accounts. It seems like a very twisted road and we need to straighten that road out a bit. An integrated financial management system should help to capture that.

Brian Stanley: That is the one. It is the services we get confronted with. I do not want to go into too much detail on the national children's hospital. Mr. Watt mentioned the figure of €1.7 billion the last time we met back in December. It has cost just over €1.7 billion. I know there are claims and that is a moveable feast. There is also construction inflation of over 4%. If...

Brian Stanley: Mr. Watt will come back to us on that. That wraps up the questioning. I thank the witnesses and the staff from the Department for joining us today.

Brian Stanley: The public business before us this afternoon is as follows: minutes; accounts and financial statements; correspondence; work programme; and any other business. Before we move to the minutes, during the discussion this morning with the HSE and the Department of Health, Deputy McAuliffe referred to a matter on which he wishes to make a further statement.
