Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Ombudsman Special Reports: Discussion with Ombudsman

12:35 pm

Ms Emily O'Reilly:

The Chairman pointed out an interesting conundrum in regard to the HSE versus the Department of Health. We are slightly puzzled about that as well. In regard to the motorised transport grant, the HSE has fully accepted the recommendations and that includes the recommendation that it accepts the broader definition of disability when accessing people for eligibility for it. The Chairman has a letter from Tony O'Brien, the director general designate of the HSE, or is he the director general now?
