Public Accounts Committee
Health Information and Quality Authority: Financial Statement 2016
9:00 am
Ms Mary Dunnion:
It is those and others. It is really defined by the regulations. They refer to safe premises; that is one of them. They also concern welfare regulation. As explained to Deputy Kelly, that is where one is talking about person-centred care and ensuring the rights of someone are being protected and that they are entitled to the same rights as any other citizen. Those types of regulations exist as well so it is a broad spectrum, but it does include fire safety and the physical environment.
