Public Accounts Committee

Health Information and Quality Authority: Financial Statement 2016

9:00 am

Ms Mary Dunnion:

There is a significant opportunity to begin to talk about regulating services as opposed to buildings. That will allow a reciprocal response by providers to be able to say that they are going to offer a service for people with high-dependency needs, or - and I do not mean this in a dismissive way - for people who may need only care and security. At present, there is one suite of regulation and it covers everybody no matter what type of service is required.
