Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Evaluating Orphan Drugs: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Mr. Finian Judge:

Deputy O'Connell asked about the proposed governance review. That proposal has been around for a couple of years to appoint somebody to examine the internal structures in the HSE in respect of systems, processes and procedures. It was never intended to be a review of the 2013 Act. It is now an action point in Sláintecare so my colleagues are in the process of working with the Office of Government Procurement in preparing a tender for that review. We anticipate that the review will get under way in the new year.
