Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

National Maternity Services and Infrastructure: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Liam Woods:

The group chief executives are in place and have been in place since the start of the year. They have legal delegation under the Health Act from the director general, through myself, for their roles. Boards are coming into place, and boards are in place, in some of the groups while chairs are in place in all of the groups. The Minister may be able to give more information on this when he appears before the committee in the near future but I understand the board members will be in place in the next few weeks. The one exception will be the national paediatric hospital, which will go through the legislative process to create a board late this year and early next year.
