Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Sláintecare Implementation: Centre for Health Policy and Management, Trinity College Dublin

Dr. Sara Burke:

It was. It was a part of the foundations project, which originally was around informing the design of the regions. We identified components that would be useful to the Department. Learning from past reorganisations was a piece of work conducted by our colleague, Dr. Sarah Barry. PBRA was another piece of work we did. We then shifted to focus on the Covid-19 pandemic response because the regions were put on hold during Covid. It was very much driven by our research agenda, trying to meet the needs of the Department. It was that way around, rather than the other way around, to answer the Deputy's question.
