HSE Child Welfare and Protection Services: Statements
5:00 pm
Barry Andrews (Dún Laoghaire, Fianna Fail)
We do not want to create the impression that there is a fear of retribution or consequences when a person makes a comment and talks about something validly. Even in a whistle-blower regime there will be an element of anonymity. It is a legitimate media tool to use anonymity to broadcast information. I do not believe guidelines are being distributed by the HSE but I will check that.
