‘Chaos’ in health led to PPARS flop

CHAOS, confusion and a lack of leadership in the health service led to taxpayers facing a €195 million bill for the flop PPARS computer system, it was revealed last night.

A damning report by Auditor General John Purcell into the payroll project stated there had been a “void in decision-making”.

He warned the failure must be learnt from to stop billions of euro being pumped into other major Government IT projects going the same way.
