Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Sláintecare Implementation: Discussion
Mr. Robert Watt:
The expectation is that next week formal discussions will take place. We have a chair appointed now. There have been numerous engagements with representative bodies of an informal nature to discuss some of the issues and to understand that there is a basis for a more formal engagement, and we are hoping that this will start next week. As I mentioned earlier, we are hoping to do this quickly but, as ever, it requires us to reach an agreement and the parties have different views on many questions. We are hoping to do this before the summer and to finalise it before the summer because it has gone on too long.
