Health (Repayment Scheme) Bill 2006: Committee Stage.
3:00 pm
Camillus Glynn (Fianna Fail)
I support the words of the Minister of State and indeed, those of Senator Quinn. Those who will deal with these matters are people who have been involved in the tendering process. As a consequence, it is reasonable to assume that the optimum value will be secured for and on behalf of the State. There is no point in going into histrionics as to why this money has to be paid back. Everybody knows that and all Governments are culpable in that regard. The reality is that this is the way to proceed. I am in favour of the reasons, as outlined by the Minister of State and indeed, Senator Quinn. It is a question of value for money and I believe the measures that have been selected will deliver that.
