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:

Internationally, in most countries the regulator does not have the responsibility to oversee the implementation of recommendations. In other countries, there is a commissioner of services who takes on board the recommendations and requires under commissioning arrangements that a provider organisation carry out the implementation of recommendations. It would not always be in the remit of the regulatory body.
