Tom Neville: Will the witnesses send us a copy of the recruitment process from start to end showing how the stakeholders are involved in it?

Tom Neville: The HSE is not directly responsible and Mr. Condon cannot tell me how the Public Appointments Service is being proactive in recruiting consultants. The delegates have told us that there have been no applications for these positions, but has everything possible been done to ensure there is proactive headhunting and recruitment?

Tom Neville: I am sorry if I am doing this quick-fire, but I am under time duress. Mr. Condon's comment relates to the issue of service level agreements and the number of people being trained. Given the increased demand, is the number being trained high enough?
