Before the Christmas break I raised on the Adjournment the issue of procurement anomalies in the West/North West Hospitals Group, now known as Saolta. Various issues arose in regard to the group and the awarding of particular contracts. Connections subsequently emerged between the recipients of those contracts and management at the highest level of Saolta. The Leader will remember that an issue arose in regard to a report on the provision of maternity services and later it emerged that the Northgate Public Services organisation was awarded a lucrative contract. Again, there appeared to be a connection with the senior management of the group.
