CONSULTANCY FIRMS associated with three former Health Board chief executives have received payments of almost €230,000 from the HSE, according to a report today in the Medical Independent.
The three consultancy firms received the payments in 2007, 2008 and 2009, and they were paid for consultancy projects awarded by the HSE.
The payments were made within five years of those former executives receiving severance payments of around €500,000 each.
Ailbhe Jordan from the Medical Independent recently obtained figures under the Freedom of Information Act which showed that the HSE had to pay an average of €405,000 in severance to ten former CEOs.

Ballina is right to be proud as Ireland should be of a man who may be a son of Deleware and the USA but a son of Eireann too…what a welcome he will get when he returns as President
@Kevin50: I here too son of Eireann…
Why did I read that as “Coke and Champagne”.
@John Sheahan: it’s Ballina, not South Dublin :-)
@Joe Vlogs: it’s like the virus, it’s everywhere
@John Sheahan: article would have been more interesting if it was about that!
I hope that Mayo will be able to present Sam Maguire to President Joe Biden when he travels to his ancestral home while he is in office.
@C_O’S: Louth have a better chance of doing that.
@Mike Keane: Ouch!
@C_O’S: thanks I needed cheering up and that’s the best laugh I’ve had in ages
@C_O’S: not in this lifetime
James Finnegan from Lordship was Joe Bidens grandfather, I know I researched his family tree, the Blewitts in Ballina are related through great grandparents.
they’ll all be coming out of the woodwork now with their fiddles and harps and highfalutin stories of the bygone days
Great for Ballina hope to see the yanks roll in after covid
Biden is from Cork ffs. “Bye then”…Hello???
It’s all horse manure
Only 170 years late
Rumours have it locally anyway that President Joe Biden has relatives in Taghmon Co Wexford
It’s “Wahu”. Not “Whau”!
