Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion
9:00 am
Mr. Damien McCallion:
Just to close off the question regarding the on-site audit, I suspect that what was being referred to was the quality assurance standard for the programme. It was requested that there would be a site visit every three years for audit purposes and I believe the last one took place in 2014 and that one was scheduled for 2017 but it did not take place. Dr. Scally has made site visits to all of the laboratories to review things and our intention as part of the revised quality assurance guidelines is to recommence site visits in 2019.
