Select Committee on Health

Health Information Bill 2024: Committee Stage

2:00 am

Mr. Muiris O'Connor:

Yes, exactly. There are edge cases where we do not expect somebody to have a PPSN. It takes four to five weeks to generate a PPSN for a newborn baby. The IHI has been developed to be available almost at the point of birth. There would be one lined up in the maternity ward for babies.
