Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
General Scheme of the Health (Amendment) Bill 2022: Department of Health
Ms Laura Casey:
I do not think I can be definitive in my answer. HIQA has published, I think it was during the summer, a document that tried to set out what the authority considers is and is not a designated centre. I do not have the document with me. However, I understand that the document, although I cannot recall it properly, dealt with holiday homes or respite-type facilities, which in part met some of the confusion or concerns that arose in this area. We can supply the document to the committee.
