2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: Was Mr. John Gleeson one of the people who had crafted the circular? He certainly had responsibility.

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: Mr. O'Brien does know that Vicky Phelan's legal team has accused the HSE of a cover-up. One reason is this circular which, as we said, gave discretion to GPs. At no point, at the time the circular was issued, did the HSE as a corporate body decide that all patients must or should be informed. It is amazing that even today, as Mr. O'Brien sits here, he is not in a position to tell me...

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: Mr. O'Brien allowed him to answer this question at the health committee. Mr. Gleeson said, "I was involved with the then clinical director of the screening programme in compiling it,"; therefore, he was responsible. The circular gave three instructions. I want Mr. O'Brien to take this in for one moment, as I am sure he has already. The first instruction was that a copy of the audit be...

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: I do not think that it is acceptable and will explain why. Mr. O'Brien has come to the committee weeks after the scandal frightened the women of Ireland and days after a number of the women affected have asked him to stand down from his position. From today, we know that Mr. O'Brien believes a number of individuals made mistakes, but he is not prepared to say who they are. Even when it is...

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: No, I am asking if that is correct. In Mr. O'Brien's opinion, it is a systems failure, but in my opinion it is a systemic failure. Is that accurate?

2016 Financial Statements of the State Claims Agency
2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: It was outrageously disingenuous of Mr. O'Brien to make such sweeping comments about the media. It is an outrageous comment given that his organisation has not been very quick to give good journalists information when they have sought it. It is not very good about giving information to the public. To make sweeping generalisations about the work of the media speaks volumes about Mr. O'Brien...

I remind members that we are joined by the Comptroller and Auditor General and Ms Ruth Foley from his office. There are three organisations before us, including the Department of Health, represented by Mr. Jim Breslin, Secretary General and Accounting Officer, Mr. Tony Holohan, chief medical officer and Ms Mary...

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) David Cullinane: I note at this point that even though the director general is no longer here, the next person in charge should be here. It is unacceptable that questions may be put which will not be answered because people still here are not in senior positions or are not responsible. The HSE is responsible for that, that is, in not ensuring that people who can answer questions are here. While the...
