Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Brexit Preparations Update: Discussion

Mr. Jim Breslin:

I can update the committee on that. We received approval at Government last week on the approach to that Bill and we will be going back shortly. We have a priority team on it, and drafting is under way with the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. I would think we will be going back to Government with a full Bill before the end of the month. At that point, we will work with the Whips to schedule time in the Oireachtas. We will obviously make ourselves available as officials to the committee members to talk them through the approach there. It is a priority to have that legislation brought into the Oireachtas in October.
