David Cullinane: Can we agree to write to the Department on Caranua? Agreed. On the second issue, we have gone over and back with the HSE for quite some time. It sent us the draft report but we are waiting for correspondence which its representatives said it would forward.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (14 Dec 2017)

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (14 Dec 2017)
David Cullinane: I propose that we write to him outlining that, saying that at the earliest opportunity in January we will seek to have him back in unless he sends the correspondence he has agreed to send this committee. Is that agreed?
