The CEO of the HSE has to be entirely focused on the HSE. I accept Senator Colm Burke's point that there might be exceptional circumstances. Perhaps I can rephrase the amendment to include the idea that it would be health related. It will not be private companies, but health, HSE and publicly related. I will withdraw the amendment but I will table it again on Report Stage. It is too important to fall through on this and allow what happened in the past with a director general.
