Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Briefing by Department of Health Officials
Mr. Jim Breslin:
Guidance was issued to all those sectors. As stated earlier, each is unique in terms of its local infrastructure. In many cases we have multi-annual capital programmes in place to improve the infrastructure. This means that what one person in a particular centre will have to do will be different from what someone is doing in another. As the regulators, HIQA and the Mental Health Commission have risk-rated individual settings and kept in touch with the HSE where they have concerns. That process is continuing.
