Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on Sláintecare: Department of Health
Ms Caroline Pigott:
Yes. The oversight group was set up at the end of 2020. Of the recommendations in Sharing the Vision, 83 are HSE-led. The HSE is drafting an implementation plan for the period 2021 to 2023 and wants to hold workshops in June. The focus of the implementation committee is on monitoring and making sure we see the impacts of the investment made in implementing the recommendations in Sharing the Vision. The other recommendations in Sharing the Vision are linked to either Healthy Ireland or other areas and voluntary sectors. They are all being progressed. That work is going well. We meet monthly to consider progress and to steer in respect of what else needs to be set up, including specialist subgroups, to progress various actions.
