Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Proposed Appointment of Chief Medical Officer to a Role at a Higher Education Institution: Discussion
Mr. Robert Watt:
The plan was published and it is being implemented now. We are a number of months through implementation and it has clearly been derailed a bit by the Covid-19 surge and the number of people in hospital with the virus. This may be part of the committee's work programme anyway in the context of Sláintecare but we are happy, along with the CMO and members of the HSE, to come back and speak in detail about that. The Deputy has raised these questions with us before and we would be very happy to provide a copy of the plan and update the Deputy in that respect.
