9:30 am

My time is ticking down so I will finish with two questions. A recent parliamentary question response states that the Department intends to commission an independent evaluation of the existing drugs strategy in quarter 4 of 2024, to be completed in 2025, and the witnesses have mentioned this a number of times. Is that commissioned and who has the Department commissioned to do it? Second, in the course of the drugs committee there was a discussion around the fact we do not currently inspect drug treatment facilities in the same way that HIQA would inspect other health service providers. Is the Department doing any work on that?
