Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I think all present will acknowledge that it would have been far preferable if the full details around the secondment had been put in the public domain at the outset. That should have been done. I know the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Michael McGrath, is not satisfied with how this has been done and he is engaging with the Department of Health on it at the moment. That is not in any way casting aspersions on Dr. Holohan - I know the Deputy did not do so either - who is an excellent public servant, or on the fact that Trinity College Dublin is creating this post. It is important, however, to follow procedures. The Minister, Deputy Michael McGrath is pursuing the matter.
