Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

National Maternity Strategy: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Liam Woods:

I would like to hear more about the matter from the Senator at the side of this meeting. My apologies but I thought that he was talking about a governance review but instead they are individual cases. What he has said sounds unusual to me and I would like to hear more.

In the model that is emerging, which is based on the strategy, the authority around decisions relating to obstetric services will reside within the network reporting to the group, and individual hospital sites within that network.
