Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

HIQA Investigation into Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise: Health Information and Quality Authority

2:30 pm

Mr. Phelim Quinn:

The key issue is that this was a statutory investigation commissioned by the Minister under section 9 of the Health Act. We conducted this investigation as the statutory body charged with that function. We completed that investigation and provided the Minister with the results. We believe the enactment of the recommendations sits primarily with Government. As an instrument of Government, maybe there is a requirement for the involvement of this committee as well.
