David Cullinane (Waterford, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
In 2017, Mr. Quinn wrote to the director of the national patient safety office providing an update on suggested amendments to the 2007 Act. Mr. Quinn wrote again in 2018 and in 2020.
Is it the case that, from 2013 to 2020, Mr. Quinn, as a regulator, was highlighting, identifying and calling for a strengthening of regulations and powers, including in the area of adult safeguarding, and it simply has not happened to date?
