Martin Conway (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am interested in getting to understand the NPHDB's engagement with the Department of Health and the Minister. How regularly over recent months has Mr. Gunning met the Minister, the Secretary General or both within the Department to keep them apprised of this and to brief them on this developing situation? It would appear the Minister was only in a position to brief the Cabinet and the Taoiseach on the escalating situation, the delays, the costs, etc., last Friday.
