Public Accounts Committee

HSE Report on Foster Home in Waterford Community Care Area: Discussion

12:00 pm

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

There has been a series of discussions about the implementation of it. Under our statute - the 2013 statute - there are two committees which are independently chaired, an audit committee and a risk committee. We have agreed that the chair of the review panel will be accountable to the risk committee - in other words, not accountable to the executive of the HSE at all. They are currently finalising a person specification for that so that an open competition can follow for the appointment of the individual who will be chair of the panel.
