Ciarán Cannon: Have the people who are leading that change in that unit of 700 people ever contemplated visiting places such as Denmark - maybe they already have - which is not dissimilar to us in terms of its demographics and population? Estonia is a very small, agile country that has been doing extraordinary things in the use of technology for how a citizen interacts with the state. Have we visited...

Ciarán Cannon: I know this is a difficult question, but in Mr. Gloster's estimation, how far away are we from having an actual workable EHR for every person in this country?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Ciarán Cannon: If we get it in seven years, I will be happy.

Mairead Farrell: Go raibh míle maith agat as sin. An dara chainteoir ná an Teachta Paul McAuliffe.

Mairead Farrell: To follow on, I have a brief question on that. Mr. Mulvany mentioned there that a self-assessment was done. We understand that from the briefing but then he mentioned a random sample was taken. I assume what Mr. Mulvany means is that it was assessed externally. Is that correct?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: How much of that random sample complied with the self-assessment? I assume a self-assessment was done initially and then had the random sample?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: So there was 10% issue.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Okay. It is just clearly an issue of concern when it is under 40% of what is actually being assessed and then there is also the amount that is not assessed. I will bring in the next speaker.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: I understand that and I read that. It is more than a limitation. It is quite concerning when significantly less than half can be looked at. However, I will bring in the next speaker, an Teachta Kelly.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith agat, an Teachta Kelly. We have heard two personal experiences today and they have been very powerful. We wish the Deputy's father a very speedy recovery. It is very difficult for people watching and listening to hear that, despite their own personal experiences and difficulties within the healthcare system and accessing healthcare, that one consultant would be paid such an...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Comhghaideas leis an gCathaoirleach. I do not intend to dwell on this but I have one question about that high earner. Mr. Gloster used the word "abhorrent", with which I think most of us would agree. Are we going to face a similar scenario? He talked about the new consultant contracts and the employment of more consultants, which is the ultimate aim, but are legacy contracts in place such...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Mr. Gloster is telling the committee he expects it to get better over time. Is that correct?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: In the recent past, my family has been very glad to have access to consultants out of hours. I will touch on that. My father is 80 years of age. He still rides vintage motorcycles around the place, which is great for our collective family blood pressure. He gave us a bit of a scare recently. He came off the bike. We were in hospital with him. This goes back to Deputy Cannon's point...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I will ask one more quick question and I will then move on to non-compliance. We are lucky with UHW. There are fights to be had about the provision of health services in Waterford. People will know well about the fight for 24-7 and the second cath lab. That has been well documented, but we are very lucky in that ours is one of the model 4 hospitals that does not have people on trolleys....
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I want to deal with non-compliant procurement in the short time remaining. We are talking about a spend of €4.2 billion. The HSE has put the estimate for non-compliant spending at 12%. We have difference there because, apparently, the exercise only covered 38% of the overall spend. Could Mr. Mulvany put a monetary value on it for me because I am making an assumption - it may be...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I guess what I am trying to get at here is whether it is 12% of the cases or 12% of the procurement-----
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: It really is a significant amount. If that maps out to the €4.2 billion, we are talking about close on €500 million that will en up being non-compliant procurement.
